本節(jié)簡單介紹了PG查詢優(yōu)化中對Having和Group By子句的簡化處理矿微。
一、基本概念
簡化Having語句
把Having中的約束條件,如滿足可以提升到Where條件中的,則移動到Where子句中,否則仍保留在Having語句中.這樣做的目的是因為Having過濾在Group by之后執(zhí)行,如能把Having中的過濾提升到Where中,則可以提前執(zhí)行"選擇"運算,減少Group by的開銷.
以下語句,條件dwbh='1002'提升到Where中執(zhí)行:
testdb=# explain verbose select a.dwbh,a.xb,count(*)
testdb-# from t_grxx a
testdb-# group by a.dwbh,a.xb
testdb-# having count(*) >= 1 and dwbh = '1002';
QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
GroupAggregate (cost=15.01..15.06 rows=1 width=84)
Output: dwbh, xb, count(*)
Group Key: a.dwbh, a.xb
Filter: (count(*) >= 1) -- count(*) >= 1 仍保留在Having中
-> Sort (cost=15.01..15.02 rows=2 width=76)
Output: dwbh, xb
Sort Key: a.xb
-> Seq Scan on public.t_grxx a (cost=0.00..15.00 rows=2 width=76)
Output: dwbh, xb
Filter: ((a.dwbh)::text = '1002'::text) -- 提升到Where中,掃描時過濾Tuple
(10 rows)
如存在Group by & Grouping sets則不作處理:
testdb=# explain verbose
testdb-# select a.dwbh,a.xb,count(*)
testdb-# from t_grxx a
testdb-# group by
testdb-# grouping sets ((a.dwbh),(a.xb),())
testdb-# having count(*) >= 1 and dwbh = '1002'
testdb-# order by a.dwbh,a.xb;
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sort (cost=28.04..28.05 rows=3 width=84)
Output: dwbh, xb, (count(*))
Sort Key: a.dwbh, a.xb
-> MixedAggregate (cost=0.00..28.02 rows=3 width=84)
Output: dwbh, xb, count(*)
Hash Key: a.dwbh
Hash Key: a.xb
Group Key: ()
Filter: ((count(*) >= 1) AND ((a.dwbh)::text = '1002'::text)) -- 掃描數(shù)據(jù)表后再過濾
-> Seq Scan on public.t_grxx a (cost=0.00..14.00 rows=400 width=76)
Output: dwbh, grbh, xm, xb, nl
(11 rows)
簡化Group by語句
如Group by中的字段列表已包含某個表主鍵的所有列,則該表在Group by語句中的其他列可以刪除,這樣的做法有利于提升在Group by過程中排序或Hash的性能,減少不必要的開銷.
testdb=# explain verbose select a.dwbh,a.dwmc,count(*)
testdb-# from t_dwxx a
testdb-# group by a.dwbh,a.dwmc
testdb-# having count(*) >= 1;
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
HashAggregate (cost=13.20..15.20 rows=53 width=264)
Output: dwbh, dwmc, count(*)
Group Key: a.dwbh, a.dwmc -- 分組鍵為dwbh & dwmc
Filter: (count(*) >= 1)
-> Seq Scan on public.t_dwxx a (cost=0.00..11.60 rows=160 width=256)
Output: dwmc, dwbh, dwdz
(6 rows)
testdb=# alter table t_dwxx add primary key(dwbh); -- 添加主鍵
ALTER TABLE
testdb=# explain verbose select a.dwbh,a.dwmc,count(*)
from t_dwxx a
group by a.dwbh,a.dwmc
having count(*) >= 1;
QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
HashAggregate (cost=1.05..1.09 rows=1 width=264)
Output: dwbh, dwmc, count(*)
Group Key: a.dwbh -- 分組鍵只保留dwbh
Filter: (count(*) >= 1)
-> Seq Scan on public.t_dwxx a (cost=0.00..1.03 rows=3 width=256)
Output: dwmc, dwbh, dwdz
(6 rows)
二、源碼解讀
相關(guān)處理的源碼位于文件subquery_planner.c中,主函數(shù)為subquery_planner,代碼片段如下:
/*
* In some cases we may want to transfer a HAVING clause into WHERE. We
* cannot do so if the HAVING clause contains aggregates (obviously) or
* volatile functions (since a HAVING clause is supposed to be executed
* only once per group). We also can't do this if there are any nonempty
* grouping sets; moving such a clause into WHERE would potentially change
* the results, if any referenced column isn't present in all the grouping
* sets. (If there are only empty grouping sets, then the HAVING clause
* must be degenerate as discussed below.)
*
* Also, it may be that the clause is so expensive to execute that we're
* better off doing it only once per group, despite the loss of
* selectivity. This is hard to estimate short of doing the entire
* planning process twice, so we use a heuristic: clauses containing
* subplans are left in HAVING. Otherwise, we move or copy the HAVING
* clause into WHERE, in hopes of eliminating tuples before aggregation
* instead of after.
*
* If the query has explicit grouping then we can simply move such a
* clause into WHERE; any group that fails the clause will not be in the
* output because none of its tuples will reach the grouping or
* aggregation stage. Otherwise we must have a degenerate (variable-free)
* HAVING clause, which we put in WHERE so that query_planner() can use it
* in a gating Result node, but also keep in HAVING to ensure that we
* don't emit a bogus aggregated row. (This could be done better, but it
* seems not worth optimizing.)
*
* Note that both havingQual and parse->jointree->quals are in
* implicitly-ANDed-list form at this point, even though they are declared
* as Node *.
*/
newHaving = NIL;

/* Remove any redundant GROUP BY columns */
remove_useless_groupby_columns(root);//去掉group by中無用的數(shù)據(jù)列
remove_useless_groupby_columns
/*
* remove_useless_groupby_columns
* Remove any columns in the GROUP BY clause that are redundant due to
* being functionally dependent on other GROUP BY columns.
*
* Since some other DBMSes do not allow references to ungrouped columns, it's
* not unusual to find all columns listed in GROUP BY even though listing the
* primary-key columns would be sufficient. Deleting such excess columns
* avoids redundant sorting work, so it's worth doing. When we do this, we
* must mark the plan as dependent on the pkey constraint (compare the
* parser's check_ungrouped_columns() and check_functional_grouping()).
*
* In principle, we could treat any NOT-NULL columns appearing in a UNIQUE
* index as the determining columns. But as with check_functional_grouping(),
* there's currently no way to represent dependency on a NOT NULL constraint,
* so we consider only the pkey for now.
