Our SQL parsers are among the fastest, if not the fastest, in the world. Once you have something highly optimized, it's very hard to get further tangible gains. Yet I managed to double their speed, and I wouldn't have been able to do so without AI. For the not-so-optimized code, the gains were incredible. Binding is now up to 100x faster and memory consumption down by up to 60x.
I just checked the impact on SQL Tran and it now takes 20 seconds to parse SQL, perform a static analysis pass, and translate full 2.7 million SLOC Oracle schema to Postgres.
