------------------------------------
Assignee: Apache Spark
> Fix TPCDSQueryBenchmark Measuring Performance of Wrong Query Results
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-39584
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-39584
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Test
> Components: Tests
> Affects Versions: 3.0.3, 3.1.2, 3.2.1, 3.3.0, 3.4.0
> Reporter: Kazuyuki Tanimura
> Assignee: Apache Spark
> Priority: Minor
>
> GenTPCDSData uses the schema defined in `TPCDSSchema` that contains char(N).
> When GenTPCDSData generates parquet, that pads spaces for strings whose
> lengths are < N.
> When TPCDSQueryBenchmark reads data from parquet generated by GenTPCDSData,
> it uses schema from the parquet file and keeps the paddings. Due to the extra
> spaces, string filter queries of TPC-DS fail to match. For example, q13 query
> results are all nulls and returns too fast because string filter does not
> meet any rows.
> Therefore, TPCDSQueryBenchmark is benchmarking with wrong query results and
> that is inflating some performance results.
> I am exploring two possible solutions now
> 1. Call `CREATE TABLE tableName schema USING parquet LOCATION path` before
> reading. This is what Spark TPC-DS unit tests are doing
> 2. Change char to string in the schema. This is what [databricks data
> generator|https://github.com/databricks/spark-sql-perf] is doing
> TPCDSQueryBenchmark was ported from databricks/spark-sql-perf in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-35192
> History related char issue
