Thanks everyone. I initially got started with Apache Calcite when improving SQL support in Apache Solr. It replaced the original Presto parser and we gained an optimizer as well. Over the past 2 years or so I have been trying to help improve Calcite by picking up issues that haven't gotten a ton of attention. The recent JDK release cycle speed up is one area that I have been trying to help Calcite get ahead of.
