Juliusz Sompolski commented on SPARK-24013:
-------------------------------------------

This hits when trying to create histogram statistics (SPARK-21975) on columns 
like monotonically increasing id - histograms cannot be created in reasonable 
time.

> ApproximatePercentile grinds to a halt on sorted input.

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL

> Running
> {code}
> sql("select approx_percentile(rid, array(0.1)) from (select rand() as rid 
> from range(10000000))").collect()
> {code}
> takes 7 seconds, while
> {code}
> sql("select approx_percentile(id, array(0.1)) from range(10000000)").collect()
> {code}
> grinds to a halt - processes the first million rows quickly, and then slows 
> down to a few thousands rows / second (4m rows processed after 20 minutes).
> Thread dumps show that it spends time in QuantileSummary.compress.
> Seems it hits some edge case inefficiency when dealing with sorted data?
