+ SUMMARIZE THE ISSUE. This is a one line summary of the issue.
+
+ For instance:
+
+ Applications may no longer open two InputStreams on the same ResultSet column.
+-->
+
+
+<h4>Summary of Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+Index cardinality statistics are updated automatically.
+</p>
+
+
+<!--
+ DESCRIBE WHAT IT IS THAT THE USER ACTUALLY SEES WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS.
+
+ For instance:
+
+ In the previous release, applications were able to open two
+ InputStreams on the same column. Depending on how these streams
+ interacted, the value siphoned out of the column was erratic. Now
+ Derby raises a SQLException when the application attempts to create
+ the second InputStream.
+-->
+
+
+<h4>Symptoms Seen by Applications Affected by Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+During query compilation, Derby now checks if the index cardinality
+statistics for the tables involved in the query are out of date. If
+the statistics are outdated, the query compiler will schedule a job
+that updates them in a separate thread. The thread that updates the
+statistics in the background may affect the performance of the user
+threads.
+</p>
+
+
+<!--
+ OPTIONAL: DESCRIBE INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH PREVIOUS RELEASE, IF ANY.
+
+ For instance:
+
+ Applications which open two InputStreams on the ResultSet column now
+ fail.
+-->
+
+
+<h4>Incompatibilities with Previous Release</h4>
+
+<p>
+This release of Derby may cause more threads to be running than
+previous releases did. These threads may use resources also needed by
+the user threads (for example, disk bandwidth, CPU or locks on system
+tables) and thereby interfere with the execution in the user threads.
+</p>
+
+
+<!--
+ DESCRIBE WHY THE CHANGE WAS MADE.
+
+ For instance:
+
+ The previous behavior violated the JDBC standard. The new behavior
+ is correct.
+-->
+
+
+<h4>Rationale for Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+Derby's optimizer will often choose query execution plans that yield
+bad performance if the index cardinality statistics are out of date.
+</p>
+
+
+<!--
+ OPTIONAL: DESCRIBE HOW TO REVERT TO THE PREVIOUS BEHAVIOR OR
+ OTHERWISE AVOID THE INCOMPATIBILITIES INTRODUCED BY THIS CHANGE.
+
+ For instance:
+
+ Users must recode applications which open multiple streams on the same column.
+-->
+
+
+<h4>Application Changes Required</h4>
+
+<p>
+If the automatic updating of index cardinality statistics causes
+problems, the application can disable it by setting the database
+property <tt>derby.storage.indexStats.auto=false</tt>.
+</p>
+
+
+<p>
+To diagnose problems with automatic updating of index statistics, the
+application may set the database
+property <tt>derby.storage.indexStats.log=true</tt>. When this
+property is set, the thread that updates the statistics will write
+messages to the Derby system log (derby.log) every time it performs a
+task.
