Jul 1, 2025July 2025 performance-focused milestone for trinodb/trino. Delivered two principal features: internal PagesHash/PagesIndex cleanup and a performance optimization for Iceberg metadata scans. The PagesHash refactor removes unused default methods and the SimplePagesHashStrategy when joinChannels is empty, coupled with new test coverage for the empty join channels scenario. The Iceberg work introduces an icebergScanExecutor to optimize metadata reads across operations (optimize, rewrite manifests, and row delta commits), reducing bottlenecks from the default worker pool and boosting metadata throughput. Collectively, these changes improve stability, reduce latency for metadata-heavy workloads, and enhance maintainability. This supports faster, more predictable query performance and better resource utilization for large-scale deployments.

May 1, 2025May 2025 (2025-05) delivered substantial observability and performance improvements for trinodb/trino. The changes focused on metrics-driven insights for split generation and operator pipelines, plus targeted performance tuning and code cleanup to boost throughput and reliability. Key outcomes: - Observability and metrics: Implemented and exposed split metrics across the generation path and operators, including per-table-scan metrics in EXPLAIN, connector-level metrics, Iceberg metrics, and Redshift unload metrics. Introduced ConnectorSplitSource#getMetrics, propagated split source metrics to QueryStats, and updated tests to exercise the new metrics across relevant connectors. - Performance tuning and stability: Tuned splitting and hashing for higher throughput and stability by increasing page-split thresholds (2MB) and delta.max-split-size (128MB), avoiding background executor usage for Oracle queries, moving executeQuery into JdbcPageSource#getNextSourcePage, reducing contributions from RLE blocks, and switching to InterpretedHashGenerator in FlatGroupByHash. Also simplified or removed unused/deprecated code paths to reduce maintenance risk. - Code quality and maintenance: Cleaned up dead code and removed outdated APIs (e.g., SplitOperatorInfo, deprecated ConnectorSplit/getSplitInfo, and OperatorStats#add), improving maintainability and reducing surface area for future bugs. Impact: - Business value: Faster, more predictable query execution on large and complex workloads; improved diagnostics and faster problem resolution due to enhanced observability. - Technical achievements: Cross-project metrics instrumentation, improved Hashing and splitting logic, and streamlined codebase with API cleanups. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Metrics instrumentation across connectors (Iceberg, Redshift), EXPLAIN analysis, and QueryStats integration. - Performance tuning of page splitting and hashing; InterpretedHashGenerator usage; move towards more robust operator internals. - Code hygiene: removal of dead code, API deprecations, and test enhancements for metrics coverage.
