Abstract
The performance and characteristics of the execution of various join-trees on a parallel DBMS are studied. The results are a step in the direction of the design of a query optimization strategy that is fit for parallel execution of complex queries. Among others, synchronization issues are identified to limit the performance gain from parallelism. A new hash-join algorithm, called pipelining hash-join is introduced that has fewer synchronization constraints than the known hash-join algorithms. Also, the behavior of individual join operations in a join-tree is studied in a simulation experiment. The results show that the pipelining hash-join algorithm yields a better performance for multi-join queries. Also, the format of the optimal join-tree appears to depend on the size of the operands of the join. The results from the simulation study are confirmed with an analytic model for dataflow query execution. >
