Overview + +This report documents the head-to-head performance comparison between `cloudSQL` (local execution mode) and [DuckDB](https://duckdb.org/) v1.5.2, an embedded OLAP database with state-of-the-art vectorized execution. The goal is to validate cloudSQL's performance against the industry-standard in-memory analytical engine. + +## 2.

Architectural Analysis + +### Filter + Aggregation (cloudSQL wins 2.7x–4.5x) + +cloudSQL outperforms DuckDB on the filter+aggregate workload (Q6) by a significant margin. This is surprising given DuckDB's maturity. Several factors likely contribute: + +1. **Batch Insert Mode overhead**: cloudSQL benchmarks populate data via `INSERT` statements, which may go through the slower transaction path +2. **Predicate evaluation**: cloudSQL's vectorized filter (`VectorizedFilterOperator`) processes batches with tight inner loops +3. **Memory locality**: For simple predicates on consecutive rows, cloudSQL's row-oriented storage may exhibit better cache locality + +### GROUP BY Aggregation (DuckDB wins 385x–1,196x) + +DuckDB dominates GROUP BY workloads. This gap is expected and reflects a fundamental architectural difference: + +1. **Columnar storage**: DuckDB stores data in Arrow columnar format, making aggregation on a single column extremely cache-efficient (read only that column) +2. **Hash aggregation maturity**: DuckDB's `HashAggregate` operator uses sophisticated grouping strategies (multi-level aggregation, pre-flighting) +3. **SIMD vectorization**: DuckDB leverages SIMD instructions for hashing and aggregation within batch processing +4. **cloudSQL row-oriented GROUP BY**: cloudSQL's current aggregation reads entire rows even when only one column is needed + +**Action item**: Investigate using cloudSQL's ColumnarTable storage for analytical workloads where only a subset of columns is needed for aggregation. + +### Hash Join (DuckDB wins 9x–18x) + +DuckDB's hash join is significantly faster, likely due to: + +1. **Vectorized probe**: DuckDB's `HashJoinProbe` processes batches without breaking for row-level iteration +2. **Build-side partitioning**: DuckDB uses probe-side partitioning to improve memory locality during probe +3. **cloudSQL's Volcano path**: The join benchmark may be exercising cloudSQL's row-oriented Volcano path (`HashJoinOperator`) rather than the vectorized `VectorizedHashJoinOperator` + +## 5. Benchmark Methodology + +The benchmark suite is located at `benchmarks/duckdb_comparison_bench.cpp` and follows the same pattern as `sqlite_comparison_bench.cpp`. + +### Queries Tested + +**Q1 (TPC-H inspired, GROUP BY aggregation)** +```sql +SELECT l_quantity, SUM(l_extendedprice), AVG(l_discount) FROM lineitem GROUP BY l_quantity +``` + +**Q6 (TPC-H inspired, filter + aggregation)** +```sql +SELECT SUM(l_extendedprice) FROM lineitem WHERE l_discount BETWEEN 0.04 AND 0.06 AND l_quantity < 25 +``` + +**Q3-like (simplified multi-table join)** +```sql +SELECT o.o_orderkey, SUM(l.l_extendedprice) +FROM orders o JOIN lineitem l ON o.o_orderkey = l.l_orderkey +GROUP BY o.o_orderkey +``` + +### Schema + +**lineitem** (6 columns, replicated from TPC-H) +| Column | Type | +|--------|------| +| l_orderkey | BIGINT | +| l_partkey | BIGINT | +| l_quantity | INT | +| l_extendedprice | DOUBLE | +| l_discount | DOUBLE | +| l_tax | DOUBLE | + +**orders** (3 columns, for join tests) +| Column | Type | +|--------|------| +| o_orderkey | BIGINT | +| o_custkey | BIGINT | +| o_orderdate | TEXT | + +## 6. Key Findings + +| Finding | Implication | +|---------|-------------| +| cloudSQL's vectorized filter path is highly optimized | Good foundation for analytical workloads | +| GROUP BY aggregation needs significant work | Priority: optimize or offload to columnar storage | +| Join performance lags behind industry standard | Investigate vectorized join path and probe-side optimization | +| Filter+select outperforms DuckDB in simple cases | cloudSQL's row storage can win on point predicates | + +## 7. Future Roadmap + +1. **Columnar GROUP BY**: Add aggregation support to `ColumnarTable` and route GROUP BY queries through columnar storage +2. **SIMD aggregation**: Profile and vectorize hash-based grouping with AVX-512 on supported hardware +3. **Probe-side optimization**: Investigate partitioned hash join for better cache locality during probe +4. **Vectorized join by default**: Ensure joins exercise `VectorizedHashJoinOperator` rather than Volcano path +5. **TPC-H full suite**: Run the complete TPC-H SF=1 benchmark (22 queries) for comprehensive comparison + +## 8.
