From 44621b6ff3a3b4bb27e3bb24a47d62974aecb726 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Hajas Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2020 12:00:00 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Remove Orca assertions when merging buckets These assertions started getting tripped in the previous commit when adding tests, but aren't related to the Epsilon change. Rather, we're calculating the frequency of a singleton bucket using two different methods which causes this assertion to break down. The first method (calculating the upper_third) assumes the singleton has 1 NDV and that there is an even distribution across the NDVs. The second (in GetOverlapPercentage) calculates a "resolution" that is based on Epsilon and assumes the bucket contains some small Epsilon frequency. It results in the overlap percentage being too high, instead it too should likely be based on the NDV. In practice, this won't have much impact unless the NDV is very small. Additionally, the conditional logic is based on the bounds, not frequency. However, it would be good to align in the future so our statistics calculations are simpler to understand and predictable. For now, we'll remove the assertions and add a TODO. Once we align the methods, we should add these assertions back. --- .../libnaucrates/src/statistics/CBucket.cpp | 20 ++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/gporca/libnaucrates/src/statistics/CBucket.cpp b/src/backend/gporca/libnaucrates/src/statistics/CBucket.cpp index 9ea86cb17e..778c40d303 100644 --- a/src/backend/gporca/libnaucrates/src/statistics/CBucket.cpp +++ b/src/backend/gporca/libnaucrates/src/statistics/CBucket.cpp @@ -186,6 +186,14 @@ CBucket::GetOverlapPercentage(const CPoint *point, BOOL include_point) const CDouble res = 1 / distance_upper; res = res * distance_middle; + // TODO: When calculating the overlap percentage for doubles, we're + // using a different method than when calculating the frequency.
