I'm curious about Motion's experience with "Unused Indices". They suggest Cockroach's dashboard listed used indexes in the "Unused Indices" list.

I think the indexes they suspect were used are unused but Motion didn't realize CockroachDB was doing zigzag joins on other indexes to accomplish the same thing, leaving the indexes that would be obviously used as genuinely not used.

It's a great feature but CRDB's optimizer would prefer a zig zag join over a covering index, getting around this required indexes be written in a way to persuade the optimizer to not plan for a zig zag join.
