[MonetDB-users] Algebra Mode vs sql debug 16384
Hi All - can someone help me clarify the difference between Algebra "-G" mode and setting SQL debug equal to 16384 in the monetdb config file? With an older version of MonetDb I set the sql_debug=16384 in the config file so I could take advantage of Algebra mode when starting the server via mero. Today I compiled the Nov08-SP2 release and ran some tests using sql_debug=0 vs sql_debug=16384. I assumed they would do the exact same since Algebra mode is now the default. They returned very different results however. For SQL statements with a large number of predicates (100+), performance is about the same. But for anything smaller the query speed is much worse (10x avg) when I don't have sql_debug=16384 turned on. The query trace files are also different when I run the exact same query with and without the 16384 flag. I made sure to restart the server process in between. Also, below is the latest output from mserver --version: Copyright (c) 1993-July 2008 CWI Copyright (c) August 2008- MonetDB B.V., all rights reserved Visit http://monetdb.cwi.nl/ for further information Configured for prefix: /home/ross/monetNov08sp2 Libraries: openssl: OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007 (compiled with OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007) Compiled by: ross@home Compilation: gcc -O2 -std=c99 -fgnu89-inline -O6 -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -falign-loops=4 -falign-jumps=4 -falign-functions=4 -fexpensive-optimizations -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -ftree-vectorize Linking : /usr/bin/ld Any thoughts?

So the Nov08 doesn't have this by default. So I don't think its strang that the 16384 setting (ie enabling algebra) works better. Anyway if your in a testing phase, please consider the current cvs stable branch. It could improve the release later this month.

just a short MIL question:
I have a table
Hi Henning, here is an example: var ord := attr1.tsort(); ord := ord.CTrefine(attr2).mark(0@0).reverse(); attr1 := ord.leftfetchjoin(attr1); attr2 := ord.leftfetchjoin(attr2); attr3 := ord.leftfetchjoin(attr3); Jan On Feb 6, 2009, at 17:21, Henning Rode wrote:

vertically fragmented into three BATs. Now I would like to get the the table sorted on both attr1, attr2, like this: attr1 attr2 attr3 1 1 0.2 1 2 0.3 2 1 0.4 2 3 0.1
How do I do this with the 3 BATs in MIL. Does anyone has an example MIL code of such an operation?

I found already a solution. On 06.02.2009, at 17:21, Henning Rode wrote:
