| 423316403 | MDU6SXNzdWU0MjMzMTY0MDM= | 422 | Figure out what to do about table counts in a mutable world | 9599 | closed | 0 | 4 | 2019-03-20T15:27:15Z | 2019-05-02T05:43:11Z | 2019-05-02T05:43:11Z | OWNER | In moving away from the existing static inspect method (see #420 and #419) the biggest thing lost is full table row counts. These can be expensive against large tables, but currently Datasette runs the `count (*) from x` query once at inspection time and then reuses it for every page. We can run those counts with a timelimit, but this means that for larger tables we won't be able to show a count at all, which is disappointing. Is there a way we can find an approximate or lower bound count for a table? | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/422/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | completed |
