# frozen_string_literal: true

# For large tables, PostgreSQL can take a long time to count rows due to MVCC.
# We can optimize this by using various strategies for approximate counting.
#
# For example, we can use the reltuples count as described in https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Slow_Counting.
#
# However, since statistics are not always up to date, we also implement a table sampling strategy
# that performs an exact count but only on a sample of the table. See TablesampleCountStrategy.
