Background
The time spent in computing column statistics was previously included in the COMPILE / EXECUTE part of a pipeline in the public profiling tables.
Improvement
The profiling tables
- EXA_DBA_PROFILE_LAST_DAY
- EXA_USER_PROFILE_LAST_DAY
- EXA_DBA_PROFILE_RUNNING
- EXA_USER_PROFILE_RUNNING
now show an additional profiling part COLUMN STATISTICS, which indicates that the database is computing statistics on a column for internal optimization. When consecutive, these parts are combined by the table with the remarks field having a comma-separated list of the columns over which statistics were computed.
