RDF-3X: a RISC-style Engine for RDF

Summary: RDF-3X: a RISC-style RDF engine with puristic data structures that eliminates physical-design tuning. Fast merge-joins plus a synopses-based optimizer pick join orders for large datasets (50M+ triples) to boost SPARQL performance. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
