Abstract
In a database, inner joins are performed in a depth-first manner. Depth-first joins differ from breadth-first joins in that rows are examined a page at a time during execution from every table that is participating in the query. Thus, the depth-first join is a constant-space operation with respect to the size of the data set, with the storage required approximately equal to the sum of the sizes of a page from each table.
