Reasons:

  • The cache will at some point store intermediate results and not only query results. We should change the terminology now without having to worry about backward compat later.

  • Equivalent caches in MySQL and in Starrocks are called "query cache".

  • According to several academic studies, the new name is ca. 13.8% more catchy.

Changelog category (leave one):

  • Improvement

Reasons:

- The cache will at some point store intermediate results as opposed to
  only query results. We should change the terminology now without
  having to worry about backward compat.

- Equivalent caches in MySQL (1) and Starrocks (2) are called "query
  cache".

- The new name is ca. 13.8% more catchy.
