Small Changes, Big Results

  • Editorial

Last week I was able to attend THAT conference in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. It was my first time in the great state of cheese, and the conference lived up to its reputation.

Question of the Day

Estimated Rows

I have two calls to the GENERATE_SERIES TVF in this code:

SELECT   TOP 10 gs.value
FROM     GENERATE_SERIES(1, 10) AS gs
ORDER BY NEWID ()
OPTION (RECOMPILE);
go
DECLARE @a int = 10;
SELECT   TOP (@a) gs.value
FROM     GENERATE_SERIES(1, @a) AS gs
ORDER BY NEWID ()
OPTION (RECOMPILE);
In the actual query plans, what is the estimated number of rows for each batch in SQL Server 2022?
