When DISTINCT on distribution keys or DISTINCT with GROUP BY on distributions keys, we could also add a HashAgg node to do a pre-dedup before aggregation.
A 3-phase aggregation is as:
explain(costs off)
select count(distinct a) from t_issue_659;
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------
Finalize Aggregate
-> Gather Motion 3:1 (slice1; segments: 3)
-> Partial Aggregate
-> HashAggregate
Group Key: a
-> Seq Scan on t_issue_659
Optimizer: Postgres query optimizer
(7 rows)
HashAggregate node may eliminate tuples and have a win compared to two-phase aggregation with Partial and Final Aggregate.
The effect is closely related to the data distribution of distinct values across segments, and we introduce a new GUC to make use win.
set gp_eager_distinct_dedup = on;
If set, planner will eager to use our 3-phase aggregate plan.
This also works for join:
explain (costs off) select count(distinct dqa_t1.d) from dqa_t1, dqa_t2 where dqa_t1.d = dqa_t2.d group by dqa_t2.dt;
QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------
Gather Motion 3:1 (slice1; segments: 3)
-> Finalize HashAggregate
Group Key: dqa_t2.dt
-> Redistribute Motion 3:3 (slice2; segments: 3)
Hash Key: dqa_t2.dt
-> Partial HashAggregate
Group Key: dqa_t2.dt
-> HashAggregate
Group Key: dqa_t2.dt, dqa_t1.d
-> Hash Join
Hash Cond: (dqa_t1.d = dqa_t2.d)
-> Seq Scan on dqa_t1
-> Hash
-> Seq Scan on dqa_t2
Optimizer: Postgres query optimizer
