STL_WINDOW

Analyzes query steps that perform window functions.

This view is visible to all users. Superusers can see all rows; regular users can see only their own data. For more information, see Visibility of data in system tables and views.

Table columns

Column name	Data type	Description
userid	integer	ID of the user who generated the entry.
query	integer	Query ID. The query column can be used to join other system tables and views.
slice	integer	Number that identifies the slice where the query was running.
segment	integer	Number that identifies the query segment.
step	integer	Query step that ran.
starttime	timestamp	Time in UTC that the query started executing, with 6 digits of precision for fractional seconds. For example: 2009-06-12 11:29:19.131358.
endtime	timestamp	Time in UTC that the query finished executing, with 6 digits of precision for fractional seconds. For example: 2009-06-12 11:29:19.131358.
tasknum	integer	Number of the query task process that was assigned to run the step.
rows	bigint	Total number of rows that were processed.
is_diskbased	character(1)	If true (t), the query was performed as a disk-based operation. If false (f), the query was performed in memory.
workmem	bigint	Total number of bytes in working memory that were assigned to the step.

Sample queries

The following example returns window function results for slice 0 and segment 3.

select query, tasknum, rows, is_diskbased, workmem
from stl_window
where slice=0 and segment=3;   

 query | tasknum | rows | is_diskbased | workmem
