Deparsing and parsing a query can be heavy on CPU. When locally executing
the query we don't need to do this in theory most of the time.
This PR is the first step in allowing to skip deparsing and parsing
the query in these cases, by lazily creating the query string and
storing the query in the task. Future commits will make use of this and
not deparse and parse the query anymore, but use the one from the task
directly.
This is purely to enable better performance with prepared statements.
Before this commit, the fast path queries with prepared statements
where the distribution key includes a parameter always went through
distributed planning. After this change, we only go through distributed
planning on the first 5 executions.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a problem when adding a new node due to tables referenced in a functions body
Fixes#3378
It was reported that `master_add_node` would fail if a distributed function has a table name referenced in its declare section of the body. By default postgres validates the body of a function on creation. This is not a problem in the normal case as tables are replicated to the workers when we distribute functions.
However when a new node is added we first create dependencies on the workers before we try to create any tables, and the original tables get created out of bound when the metadata gets synced to the new node. This causes the function body validator to raise an error the table is not on the worker.
To mitigate this issue we set `check_function_bodies` to `off` right before we are creating the function.
The added test shows this does resolve the issue. (issue can be reproduced on the commit without the fix)
In this commit, we're introducing a way to prevent CTE inlining via a GUC.
The GUC is used in all the tests where PG 11 and PG 12 tests would diverge
otherwise.
Note that, in PG 12, the restriction information for CTEs are generated. It
means that for some queries involving CTEs, Citus planner (router planner/
pushdown planner) may behave differently. So, via the GUC, we prevent
tests to diverge on PG 11 vs PG 12.
When we drop PG 11 support, we should get rid of the GUC, and mark
relevant ctes as MATERIALIZED, which does the same thing.
