Thank you . Got the point.

If these quick queries ran within a certain time frame (say for a duration
of ~1hr) and few of the executions ran longer(which might be because of the
less parallel workers as the max limit exhausted because of concurrent
executions,
OR
It may be because of the change in the execution path for certain execution
of the queries.

Is there any way to track those historical executions and be able to find
the exact root cause of the slow executions confidently?
