I wrote a little bit about worst-case optimal joins in datatoad, support for which has just landed although there is a bit of tidying still to do before they are as crisp as the non-wco joins. github.com/frankmcsherr...

Datatoad check-in: this time including some recent progress on columnar joins (good news: faster). Though, it also tries to roll up a bit of the sprawl of content I've scribbled, which increasingly feels like it needs some more careful curation to be helpful. github.com/frankmcsherr...

Good news on the Datalog front: v1 of "columnar joins" seem to work, and resulted in a 20% improvement (from 9.5s to 7.5s, for the joins of a reference workload). Still more gains from tightening it up, and potentially from columnar sorting, but I'll take a swing at writing things up tomorrow!
