Left-Deep Vs. Bushy Trees: An Analysis Of Strategy Spaces And Its Implications For Query Optimization

Summary: Analyzes cost landscapes of left-deep vs. bushy query-tree spaces, showing both form a well with distinct quality. Evaluates Iterative Improvement, Simulated Annealing, and Two-Phase Optimization on these spaces, concluding the combined space is easier to optimize. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
