Comment on Challenges in join optimizationparentComments−layer87moIt’s not equivalent. Knapsack is weakly NP-hard, while optimal join order is strongly NP-hard. Also, algorithms that only approximate an optimal solution don’t generally carry over between NP-hard problems, unless they are structurally very similar.
