An Experimental Evaluation of Large Scale GBDT Systems

Summary: Systematic evaluation of distributed GBDT data management policies; introduces a quadrant model by data partitioning and storage. Proposes Vero (vertical partitioning + row-store) and benchmarks quadrants vs state-of-the-art, yielding workload-driven guidelines for policy choice. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
