Hi all,

I am working on optimisation of the SQL queries that originally were writtent 
for the PostgreSQL. I am interested in knowledge of the algorithms that SAP 
DB uses to perform JOINS/aggregations.

Does SAP DB implements the merge join/hash joins algorithms as PostgreSQL and 
some other DBMS does? If we have simple join on condition
table1.key = table2.key with the indexes defined for both columns what is the 
estimation for the "cost" of this operation? It should significantly depend 
of the join algorithm.  If the nested loop algorithm is used the estimation 
is around n1*log2(n2) rows  while in case of the merge join it's ~ n1+n2 
rows. I have not found any information on this mailing list about this matter.

I appreciate any information related to this matter.
Thanks in advance.
