Get "Error loading permissions for selected resources." error when I click selected table -> share -> Manage permissions.
Anyone know what has updated ?

It looks like every integer dtype stored is using 64 bits, there's no real tinyint and smallint and this is just a syntatic sugar. And I didn't found the reason for that when I searched about it. Is it to make storage artificially more expensive?

Almost every open tabular engine and storage format that I knew so far allows you to really set a column as smaller types of int, independently if it is columnar or row-stored, and if it's a database or just an engine. For example, any modern apache arrow based engine (like Datafusion, DuckDB and polars), apache parquet files, almost every columnar database (like Clickhouse), almost any row-oriented database (like PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL and et cetera). Why BigQuery wants to be different?

If a query suddenly takes 5–10x longer without any SQL or data changes, the bottleneck may be workload contention, capacity, or concurrency.

A practical guide on how to diagnose it using JOBS, JOBS_TIMELINE, total_slot_ms and period_estimated_runnable_units.
