Automatic Statistics Collection Parameters
When automatic statistics collection is enabled, you can run ANALYZE automatically in the same transaction as an INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, COPY or CREATE TABLE...AS SELECT statement when a certain threshold of rows is affected (on_change), or when a newly generated table has no statistics (on_no_stats). To enable this feature, set the following server configuration parameters in your Greenplum master postgresql.conf file and restart Greenplum Database:
gp_autostats_mode_in_functions |
Warning: Depending on the specific nature of your database operations, automatic
statistics collection can have a negative performance impact. Carefully evaluate whether
the default setting of on_no_stats is appropriate for your system.
