Computation
Through the row count value provided by the metadata, which is calculated differently for every database.
For example:
In Oracle, the total row count is calculated by doing a count(*). As in Oracle, this is not available by default.
BigQuery, on the other hand, provides metadata information through the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_STORAGE metadata table. Specifically, Soda uses the total_rows column from that table.
