> Based on query pattern, {{FilterSelectivityEstimator}} gets column statistics from metastore in multiple calls. For instance, in the following query, it ends up getting individual column statistics for for flights multiple number of times.
> When the table has large number of partitions, getting statistics for columns via multiple calls can be very expensive. This would adversely impact the overall compilation time. The following query took 14 seconds to compile.
> {noformat}
> SELECT COUNT(`flights`.`flightnum`) AS `cnt_flightnum_ok`,
> YEAR(`flights`.`dateofflight`) AS `yr_flightdate_ok`
> FROM `flights` as `flights`
> JOIN `airlines` ON (`flights`.`uniquecarrier` = `airlines`.`code`)
> JOIN `airports` as `source_airport` ON (`flights`.`origin` = `source_airport`.`iata`)
> JOIN `airports` as `dest_airport` ON (`flights`.`dest` = `dest_airport`.`iata`)
> GROUP BY YEAR(`flights`.`dateofflight`);
> {noformat}
> It may be helpful to club all columns that need statistics and fetch these details in single remote call.
