> @aihuaxu and @rdblue is there a reason we need to explicitly restrict the lower/upper bounds to shredded fields? I would think that the stats pruning would be useful for any field that a writer would want to include in the bound (regardless of whether it was shredded or not). What we were thinking is that the bounds are collected from shredded column stats during shredding process. But it does seem reasonable to me to bounds and shredding can be separated: if a writer has the knowledge of the bounds and chooses not to shred, the bounds can still be used in pruning. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
