Hi, MonetDB and Actian/VectorWise are two different systems that do not share any code. MonetDB does not use any compression in the way Actian/VectorWise does. Best, Stefan ----- Original Message -----

Thank you Martin. So, did monetdb bought the codes from actian code base and included in it's source code? Also kindly tell me if monetdb is following any other compression techniques apart from pfor, pfor-delta and pdict. Thanks in advance.

Hi

Each MAL instruction is executed by a single thread. Some operators require the complete input to be available, such as in your case the group.subgroup().

Hi All,

I have recently install monetdb "OCT 2014-SP1" release on my Oracle Enterprise 6 Linux server.

Server configuration -

8 CPU Cores 64 GB RAM

I have loaded a data set with 70 columns having 15 Millions Rows.

I have started mserver5 as below --

mserver5 --debug=10 --set *gdk_nr_threads=8* --dbpath=/data/monetdb/testdb --set mapi_open=true --set mapi_port=54321 --set merovingian_uri=mapi:monetdb://localhost:54321/testdb --set mapi_usock=/data/monetdb/testdb/.mapi.sock --set monet_vault_key=/data/monetdb/testdb/.vaultkey --set sql_optimizer=default_pipe --set max_clients=64

Now I have ran a query as below --

select product_type,COUNT(DISTINCT sales_document),sum(ord_qty) FROM bookings where ord_entry_date between '2014-04-01' and '2014-10-01' group by product_type;

This query took around 90 Secs .. So I started tomograph and checked plotted graph ... which shows the parallelism usage as 39.9 % only and its utilizing only 1 thread with maximum time went in the step - group.subgroupdone almost 98%.

My Question is that even I have started the server with gdk_nr_threads=8 , then why it is just using single thread.

More info --

mserver5 --version

Hello,

I am very interested to know and learn about implementations of compression/decompression techniques that monetdb is following. I have seen the monetdb's light weight compression algorithms(pfor, pfor-delta, pdict), cache involved decompression techniques and excited to know how actually are they implemented in form of codes. Kindly tell me in which folder/file is the source code of this compression/decompression algorithms present. I have downloaded the source tarball from the website and could not find these code snippets. Plese help me to identify the path.

Regards, mg
