    Maximizing the number of simple predicates sounds reasonable. We may do the 
conversion in a depth-first manner, i.e. always convert the left branch of an 
`And` and then its right branch, until either no more predicates can be 
converted or we reach the size limit. In this way the intermediate result is 
still useful.
    
    BTW, searched for CNF conversion in Hive and found [HIVE-9166][1], which 
also tries to put an upper limit for ORC SARG CNF conversion. @nongli Any clues 
about how Impala does this?
