BigQuery has introduced a feature allowing users to view Query text within the Execution graph. This shows which part of the SQL corresponds to each stage step, helping identify bottlenecks. Users can see the source of each subquery, what data was read, aggregated, or written, and understand why certain steps, like the "0.28 sec Input," may be causing delays. This small UI update significantly aids in debugging and performance tuning.
