OK, I’m a Phoenix newbie, so that was the extent of the advice I could give you. There are people here far more experienced than I am who should be able to give you deeper advice. Have a great weekend!

For the second one, it's "CLIENT 67-CHUNK SERIAL 1-WAY REVERSE FULL SCAN OVER TIMESTAMP_INDEX; SERVER FILTER BY FIRST KEY ONLY; SERVER 1 ROW LIMIT" which looks correct, but still returns the unexpected result. 2015-06-26 16:59 GMT-07:00 Michael McAllister <mmcallis...@homeaway.com<mailto:mmcallis...@homeaway.com>>: Yufan Have you tried using the EXPLAIN command to see what plan is being used to access the data?

Now we want to find the largest value of timestamp, we have tried two approaches: 1. select max(timestamp) from t1; This query takes forever to finish, so I think it maybe doing a full table scan/comparison . 2. select timestamp from t1 order by timestamp desc limit 1; This query finished fast, but the result it returns is far from the largest value. It seems it just return the largest value for a certain range of data. Did anyone else encounter this issue/have any suggestion? -- Thanks, Yufan -- best, Yufan
