How can Query Profile be used to identify a query’s most costly operator?

Explanation

The costliest operator is the operator node with the greatest fraction of execution time, expressed as the highest percentage of total query time. Metrics such as micro-partitions scanned, cache use, and rows exchanged are diagnostic details rather than the direct measure of an operator’s relative execution cost.
