[jira] [Commented] (JENA-119) Eliminate memory bounds during query execution

["Stephen Allen (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-119?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13156422#comment-13156422 ] 

Stephen Allen commented on JENA-119:
------------------------------------

Completed QueryIterDistinct.  It streams until it passed the threshold for the first time, at which point it consumes the entire input iterator before returning further bindings.

Committed in revision 1205673.

> It would be nice to eliminate all memory bounds on queries.  Similar to JENA-44, it would involve modifying all of the QueryIterator objects that maintain unbounded collections of Bindings.
> The ones I've identified (let me know if I've missed any):
> + QueryIterSort
>       Complete!
> + QueryIterGroup
>       Probably one of the more complicated implementations.  I think it can be done with a DistinctDataBag.
> + QueryIterDistinct
>       Can be implemented trivially using DistinctDataBag, but would lose streaming capability.  We could do streaming just until the first spill, which would be a little more difficult but not bad.  If we wanted streaming even after spilling, then we would need an on-disk hashtable or b-tree (which could get expensive for maybe limited benefit, do you really need streaming after 10,000 results?).
> + QueryIteratorCopy
>     Only appears to be used QueryIterService.  Simple implementation using DefaultDataBag.
> + QueryIteratorCaching
>       Does not match DataBag's assumption of completing all writes before iterating.  But it isn't used anywhere, so maybe we remove it?
> + QueryIterDiff
> + QueryIterMinus
>       Both of these materialize the RHS into a collection.  Can be implemented with DefaultDataBag.  As an aside, is this necessary to do for all queries?  What if the RHS is cheap (i.e. a single TriplePattern)?
> + QueryIterJoin
> + QueryIterLeftJoin
>      Both materialize RHS.  Are they used anywhere?  I was under the impression that ARQ only considered left-deep plans with indexed joins on the RHS TriplePatterns.
> + SubQueries
>      I'm not sure how this is handled.  Are these materialized somewhere?
