Abstract
Techniques are disclosed that relate to truncating a subrange of records from a database table. A computer system receives a request to truncate the subrange of records. The request specifies a conditional expression that is usable to identify the subrange from other subranges of records of the database table. Before truncating the subrange of records, the computer system determines whether the subrange of records can be truncated from the database table with a single-record subrange truncate operation, regardless of a size of the subrange of records, based on whether the conditional expression satisfies a set of preconditions. Based on determining that the conditional expression satisfies those preconditions, the computer system performs the single-record subrange truncate operation that includes generating a truncate record that causes the subrange of records to be truncated from the database table.
