 This topic offers some simple tips on how to avoid commons problems that can affect the performance of your queries.
 Before reading the tips below, it is worth reiterating a few important points about CodeQL and the QL language:
 
-- In CodeQL `predicates <https://help.semmle.com/QL/ql-handbook/predicates.html>`__ and `classes <https://help.semmle.com/QL/ql-handbook/types.html#classes>`__ are all just database `relations <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relation_(database)>`__---that is, sets of tuples in a table. Large predicates generate tables with large numbers of rows, and are therefore expensive to compute.
+- CodeQL `predicates <https://help.semmle.com/QL/ql-handbook/predicates.html>`__ and `classes <https://help.semmle.com/QL/ql-handbook/types.html#classes>`__ are evaluated to database `tables <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(database)>`__. Large predicates generate large tables with many rows, and are therefore expensive to compute.
 - The QL language is implemented using standard database operations and `relational algebra <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_algebra>`__ (such as join, projection, union, etc.). For further information about query languages and databases, see :doc:`About QL <../about-ql>`.
-- Queries is evaluated *bottom-up*, which means that a predicate is not evaluated until **all** of the predicates that it depends on are evaluated. For more information on query evaluation, see `Evaluation of QL programs <https://help.semmle.com/QL/ql-handbook/evaluation.html>`__ in the QL handbook.

        // BAD! Does not use ‘this’ 
        Method getToString() {
-         result.getName().matches("ToString")

-Here, the class ``Method getToString()`` is equivalent to ``predicate getToString(Class this, Method result)``, in which the parameters are unrestricted.
+Note that while `getToString()` does not declare any parameters, it has two implicit parameters `result` and `this`, which it fails to relate. Hence the table computed by `getToString()` contains a row for every combination of values of `result` and `this`, that is, for every combination of a method named `"ToString"` and an instance of `Foo`.
 To avoid making this mistake, ``this`` should be restricted in the member predicate ``getToString()`` on the class ``Foo``.
 
 Finally, consider a predicate of the following form::
