hello,
          I just want to know about current monetdb version. Whether it does any optimization at compile time or not or it fully does at run time only.
where can i get the information about the optimization strategy of monetdb.
May be the specific src code file to refer of monetdb.
can you please refer some research papers on monetdb optimization strategy etc.

Well, I guess you'd need to browse the related research literature for
XML/XQuery cost modeling / result size estimation techniques --- however, to
my knowledge that area is not yet as well charted and understood as cost
modeling / result size estimation for relational algebra and SQL.

Of course, the details highly depend on your XML document structure and data
distribution as well as the shape and characteristics of your XQuery queries
...
