Release note (sql change): The
optimizer_min_row_count
session settinghas been added which sets a lower bound on row count estimates for
relational expressions during query planning. A value of zero, which is
the default, indicates no lower bound. Note that if this is set to a
value greater than zero, a row count of zero can still be estimated for
expressions with a cardinality of zero, e.g., for a contradictory
filter. Setting this to a value higher than 0, such as 1, may yield
better query plans in some cases, such as when statistics are frequently
stale and inaccurate.
