      We must add logic to the query planner for planning a $lookup. This involves examining the size of the collections involved and choosing the join algorithm (nlj or hashed) using the heuristic we agreed on here:

       

      Foreign collection has index to answer join predicate? Size of foreign collection Strategy
      Yes Anything Indexed NLJ
      No < 10k docs Hash Join (foreign side is build side)
      No >= 10k docs NLJ
