This is such a bizarre feature.
This is such a bizarre feature.
It's probably different for duckdb, but from something like Microsoft SQL tossing off these random queries at a database of any size could have some weird performance impacts. For example statistics on columns you don't want them on, unindexed queries with slow performance, temp tables being dumped out to disk, etc.
On first glance possibly, on second glance not at all.
First, repeat data analyst queries are a usage driver in SQL DBs. Think iterating the code and executing again.
Another huge factor in the same vein is running dev pipelines with limited data to validate a change works when modelling complex data.
This is currently a FE feature, but underneath lies effective caching.
The underlying tech is driving down usage cost which is a big thing for data practitioners.
