Hi Rajeev,

The inference costs are directly related to the complexity of the inference rules. For subclass, and subproperty we haven't see anything significant based on theYago rules applied to DBpedia recently. Is their a specific case/instance in which you are encountering a performance loss using inferencing ? For instance, we inference on owl:samAs, which when enabled means smush/mesh/combine two identical URIs that have similar and dissimilar datagraphs e.g. imagine you had two blogs an old and a new one, if owl:sameAs is declared via a rule, and the owl:sameAs inferencing is enabled via SPARQL pragma, you will end up with blog posts from both blog systems via the URI of either. In this case, the data retrieved is larger, and at an expected cost, but it this isn't due to the actual act of "inferencing", but the results of inferencing.

Hi,

Is there any performance loss when using the option inference in a
triple pattern, when the class does not have any subclasses ?
