Hologres:Historical slow queries

Last Updated:Feb 04, 2026

Hologres V0.10 and later support querying and analyzing slow queries. This feature helps you diagnose, analyze, and optimize slow or failed queries in your system. This topic describes how to use visualization to view and analyze historical slow queries.

Limits
