QUERYBUFFERSTATS System Table Description

Description

A pseudo table generated to show queries that have used significant amounts of memory. This is currently limited to sorting operations (those running queries that use the ORDER BY clause). Support for additional operations will be added in future releases of NuoDB.

By default, the ten queries with the highest memory usage in compatible processing modules are stored in the QUERYBUFFERSTATS table. The number of queries listed is configurable using the MAX_QUERY_COUNT system property. For more information on using MAX_QUERY_COUNT, see SQL System Properties.
