isTrueWithNullSlots() can be expensive when it has to query the backend. Many of the expressions will look similar, especially in large auto-generated expressions. Adds a cache based on the nullified expression to avoid querying the backend for expressions with identical structure. With DEBUG logging enabled for the Analyzer, computes and logs stats about the null slots cache. Adds 'use_null_slots_cache' query option to disable caching. Documents the new option.

<indexterm audience="hidden">USE_NULL_SLOTS_CACHE Query Option</indexterm> Impala
|
|
optimizes expressions that contain null-rejecting conjuncts - expressions that are
|
|
false if all "slots" (values returned from a table) are <codeph>NULL</codeph>.
|
|
Evaluating whether a conjunct is null-rejecting can be expensive when performed over a
|
|
lot of expressions. The "null slots cache" speeds analysis of generated queries with
|
|
many similar expressions by caching the result of evaluating an expression after slots
|
|
have been replaced with <codeph>NULL</codeph>s.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If query analysis uses a lot of memory, performance of the "null slots cache" can be
|
|
reviewed by enabling logging <codeph>org.apache.impala.analysis.Analyzer=DEBUG</codeph>
|
|
and searching coordinator logs for messages like
