I wonder if there are any reasons that inspect SHOULD try to count virtual tables? Like are there any likely uses for a cirial table where the count is both interesting and likely to be accessed often enough that it's worth caching?

I have an issue open to add a setting to disable table counts entirely:

  • 1818

Maybe that should be expanded to automatically disable row counts for virtual tables entirely? Which would mean no count would be shown for them in the UI.

If you desperately wanted a count you would then have to run a count(*) query against them explicitly.

 
{
    "total_count": 0,
    "+1": 0,
    "-1": 0,
    "laugh": 0,
    "hooray": 0,
    "confused": 0,
    "heart": 0,
    "rocket": 0,
    "eyes": 0
}
