It looks like in the case of the non-view query, the WHERE clause is being
pushed down to MapR-DB. The pushdown isn't happening in the case of the
view. You can tell that's the case because in the case of the view query,
the explain plan has a Filter operation, whereas in the case of the
non-view query you do. As you noted, in the case of the non-view, the Scan
has a startRow/stopRow/filter, which corresponds to the pushdown of the
filter.
I'm wondering if the problem is related to the CONVERT_FROM() in the WHERE
clause, or if all filters on views aren't being pushed down?
