Unknown query running before the actual query against IDs !!!!!!!

Hi,

We have the following query running againt IDs,  when they submit the a normal query . The users are not seeing this as being run. But it comes up in query_requests. 

This query takes around 90% of time and only after this the actual query runs. But the actual query runs pretty fast . 

Could some one please check this and let me know what is this query ?? 

We use Aqua data studio to run queries in Vertica.
