Thanks! The point to MAL plan really helps me out!

Hi all,
Thanks for your hard works on this great open source project. I?m a student newly working on MonetDB to implement some research ideas, and I want to understand internals of how MonetDB chooses to materialize and how it represents intermediate results. As I understand, table data and intermediate results in MonetDB are all stored as BATs, but I?m not sure if there are some special optimizations on BATs, rather than just array(s) of atoms. Here are two simple examples to elaborate my questions a little bit:
?? ?1.Given two tables,?Items(id, order, price, tax), and?Orders(id, discount). ?? ? ? ? ?Items ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[I1, I2, I3, I4, I5, I6, I7, I8, I9, I10, I11...] ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O3, O4...] ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[10, 11, 20, 15, 110, 80, 90, 12, 13, 88, 30...] ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[0.1, 0.15, 0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0.11, 0.18, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, ...] ?? ? ? ? ?Orders ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[O1, O2, O3] ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?[0.8, 0.9, 0.95]
?? ? ? ? ?When we perform a join between these two tables on the field `order` (one-to-many relationship represented by the primary-foreign key, O3 matches with [I1, I2, ?, I10]),?in the output intermediate BATs of the join, will MonetDB duplicate `O3` 10 times? Are there any optimizations currently in MonetDB to remove/reduce the duplication?
?? ?2. Given a table?item(id, price, tax), when MonetDB performs the filter `price<10` on the table,?will MonetDB actually copy all matched tuples into intermediate BATs? Or just keep a list of OIDs of matched tuples as references?
Thanks!
