Release 0.162

:::{warning} The {func}xxhash64 function introduced in this release will return a varbinary instead of a bigint in the next release. :::

General

• Fix correctness issue when the type of the value in the IN predicate does not match the type of the elements in the subquery.
• Fix correctness issue when the value on the left-hand side of an IN expression or a quantified comparison is NULL.
• Fix correctness issue when the subquery of a quantified comparison produces no rows.
• Fix correctness issue due to improper inlining of TRY arguments.
• Fix correctness issue when the right side of a JOIN produces a very large number of rows.
• Fix correctness issue for expressions with multiple nested AND and OR conditions.
• Improve performance of window functions with similar PARTITION BY clauses.

• Add aggregated operator statistics to final query statistics.
• Allow specifying column comments for {doc}/sql/create-table.
