Delete statistics
To delete statistics for all tables in all databases:
> DELETE FROM system.table_statistics WHERE true;
To delete a named set of statistics (e.g, one named "my_stats"), run a query like the following:
> DELETE FROM system.table_statistics WHERE name = 'my_stats';
After deleting statistics, restart the nodes in your cluster to clear the statistics caches.
For more information about the DELETE statement, see DELETE.
