Thomas Mueller created OAK-2023: ----------------------------------- Summary: Optimal index usage for XPath queries with "order by" combined with "or" Key: OAK-2023 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2023 Project: Jackrabbit Oak Issue Type: Improvement Components: query Reporter: Thomas Mueller Assignee: Thomas Mueller Fix For: 1.1
XPath queries with "or" are converted to union, even if there is an "order by" clause. In such cases, sorting is done in memory. See also OAK-2022. For some queries, it might be better to not use union, but use an ordered index instead. This is tricky to decide up-front, but it would be possible to estimate the cost of both variants and pick the one that seems better. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
