Hi,
Just want to make you aware of the following JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-1775. In that JIRA, I propose making it an error to do UPDATE STATISTICS on a really big table without using sampling. The reason being that it can take a very long time in this case and is usually not intended. I will provide a syntax that can override the error. If you think this is a bad idea, or you think of better approaches, please comment in the JIRA. If you think it is a great idea, you can make that comment too, but I will consider silence as consent. Thanks, Dave
