Benchmarking Queries over Trees: Learning the Hard Truth the Hard Way
Summary: Empirical benchmarking of tree-structured queries (XML/object DBs): navigational/link-following vs associative/indexed access, with experiments on the O2 system. Shows why large associative accesses underperform and offers cost-model insights plus practical tips for benchmark design and system implementors. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
