Yin Huai commented on SPARK-11329:
----------------------------------

Are you running Spark 1.5? If so, the plan looks fine. When you call 
{{sql(...).count}} the optimizer will optimize the query to avoid of evaluating 
{{max}} because it is not needed in the count. We have made a few improvements 
in Spark 1.6. So, with Spark 1.6, {{sqlCtx.sql('select id, max(struct(data)) as 
max from table  group by id ').collect()}} should also use TungstenAggregate.

> It is pretty common for customers to do regular extractions of update data 
> from an external datasource (e.g. mysql or postgres). While this is possible 
> today, the syntax is a little onerous. With some small improvements to the 
> analyzer I think we could make this much easier.
> Goal: Allow users to execute the following two queries as well as their 
> dataframe equivalents
> to find the most recent record for each key
> {{SELECT max(struct(timestamp, *)) as mostRecentRecord GROUP BY key}}
> to unnest the struct from above.
> {{SELECT mostRecentRecord.* FROM data}}
