Abstract	Persistent data of most business applications contain recursive data structures, i.e. hierarchies and networks. Processing such data stored in relational databases is not straightforward, since the relational algebra and calculus do not provide adequate facilities. Therefore, it is not surprising that initial SQL standards do not contain recursion as well. Although it was introduced by SQL:1999, even now it is implemented in few selected database management systems. In particular, one of the most popular DBMSs (MySQL) does support recursive queries yet. Numerous classes of queries can be accelerated using redundant data structures. Recursive queries form such a class. In this paper we consider four materialization solutions that speed up recursive queries. Three of them belong to the state-of-the-art, while the fourth one is the contribution of this paper. The latter method assures that the required redundant storage is linearithmic. The other methods do not guarantee such a limitation. We also present thorough experimental evaluation of all these solutions using data of various sizes up to million records. Since all these methods require writing complex code if applied directly, we have prototyped an integration of them into Hibernate object-relational mapping system. This way all the peculiarities are hidden from application developers. Architects can simply choose the appropriate materialization method and record their decisions in configuration files. All necessary routines and storage objects are then generated automatically by the ORM layer.
