----------------------------------
Resolved in release 1.4.0-incubating (2015-08-23)
> Implement multiple distinct-COUNT using GROUPING SETS
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CALCITE-732
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-732
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Julian Hyde
> Assignee: Julian Hyde
> Fix For: 1.4.0-incubating
>
>
> Currently if a query has COUNT(DISTINCT x) and COUNT(DISTINCT y) we compute
> the distinct counts separately and combine them using a join. The join isn't
> too expensive (because usually the GROUP BY has only a few keys) but we make
> multiple scans over the base table.
> I think we could translate multiple distinct-counts into a GROUPING SETS
> query (i.e. an Aggregate with more than one element in the groupSets field).
> If the underlying engine can evaluate that efficiently, then we have saved
> ourselves a join and several scans.
