> Query: select <column-list> from <table> where colA like '%a%' or colA like '%xyz%';
> Improvement Opportunities
> # Avoid isAscii computation (full access of the input string) since we're dealing with the same column twice
> # Optimize the "contains" for-loop 
> Implementation Details
> 1)
> * Added a new integer variable "asciiMode" to the VarCharHolder class
> * The default value is -1 which indicates this info is not known
> * Otherwise this value will be set to either 1 or 0 based on the string being in ASCII mode or Unicode
> * The execution plan already shares the same VarCharHolder instance for all evaluations of the same column value
> * The asciiMode will be correctly set during the first LIKE evaluation and will be reused across other LIKE evaluations
> 2) 
> * The "Contains" LIKE operation is quite expensive as the code needs to access the input string to perform character based comparisons
> * Created 4 versions of the same for-loop to a) make the loop simpler to optimize (Vectorization) and b) minimize comparisons
> Benchmarks
> * Lineitem table 100GB
> * Query: select l_returnflag, count(*) from dfs.`<source>` where l_comment not like '%a%' or l_comment like '%the%' group by l_returnflag
> * Before changes: 33sec
> * After changes    : 27sec
