Overview

Koala handles large SQL statements by compressing and chunking requests so you can run complex queries without manual changes.

​
Query size tiers

  • Small: Under 24 KB (sent as-is)
  • Medium: 24–120 KB (gzip compression applied)
  • Large: 120 KB+ (smart chunking plus compression)
Size is calculated from the raw SQL text. Whitespace and comments count toward total size.

​
How large SQL is handled

  • Gzip compression: Automatically compresses SQL payloads before sending.
  • Smart chunking: Splits very large statements into SOAP-safe chunks while preserving statement boundaries.
  • SOAP parameter optimization: Uses efficient parameter encoding to reduce overhead.

​
Best practices

  1. Keep comments concise to reduce payload size.
  2. Use bind variables to avoid repeating literal values.
  3. Validate SQL formatting before execution to avoid chunk boundary errors.
  4. Prefer CTEs over deeply nested subqueries for readability.

​
Example: large SQL

WITH employee_data AS (
  SELECT person_id,
         department_name,
         salary,
         hire_date,
         manager_id
  FROM   fusion_employees
  WHERE  hire_date > DATE '2015-01-01'
)
SELECT department_name,
       COUNT(*)   AS headcount,
       AVG(salary) AS avg_salary
FROM   employee_data
GROUP BY department_name
ORDER BY headcount DESC;
If a query approaches 1 MB of text, consider breaking it into smaller, reusable CTEs across multiple tabs.
