Hi Eric, Sure, that is one option. But I'm just wondering if inside the xBestIndex() we can get the value field, we can do a much better job to give the cardinality info.

I suspect that gives SQLite enough information to optimize the query.

Now I have a problem about the implementation of xBestIndex() function, in particular, the estimatedRow and estimatedCost variables. As the aConstraint array does not contain the RHS expression value for each constraint (only iColumn and op), how am I supposed to deduce the appropriate value for both estimatedRow and estimatedCost? For example, let's say one constraint "...Where id > 50...". The value of 50 is not passed into the sqlite3_index_info struct. Can you explain how to handle this situation? I just want to have a more accurate cardinality estimation to improve query performance. But I do not know how to do it without the value field. Thank you very much for your time.
