Skimmer: Rapid Scrolling of Relational Query Results

Summary: Skimmer enables high-speed browsing of large relational results by scrolling with a small set of representative tuples instead of a continuous blur. It selects representatives to preserve the overall impression of the full result, enabling real-time, scalable scrolling over large datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
