PostgreSQL DBA(11) - 統計資訊在計算選擇率上的應用#1

本節以舉例的形式簡單介紹了PG資料庫中統計資訊(高頻值MCV和直方圖HISTOGRAM)在單條件等值查詢和單條件比較查詢計算選擇率上的應用。

一、計算選擇率

單條件等值查詢
測試資料生成指令碼如下:

insert into t_grxx(dwbh,grbh,xm,xb,nl) 
select generate_series(1,100000)/10||'',generate_series(1,100000),'XM'||generate_series(1,100000),
(case when (floor(random()*2)=0) then '男' else '女' end),floor(random() * 100 + 1)::int;

SQL指令碼和執行計劃:

testdb=# explain verbose select * from t_grxx where dwbh = '6323';
                                       QUERY PLAN                                       
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using idx_t_grxx_dwbh on public.t_grxx  (cost=0.29..46.90 rows=30 width=24)
   Output: dwbh, grbh, xm, xb, nl
   Index Cond: ((t_grxx.dwbh)::text = '6323'::text)
(3 rows)

testdb=# explain verbose select * from t_grxx where dwbh = '24';
                                       QUERY PLAN                                       
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using idx_t_grxx_dwbh on public.t_grxx  (cost=0.29..20.29 rows=10 width=24)
   Output: dwbh, grbh, xm, xb, nl
   Index Cond: ((t_grxx.dwbh)::text = '24'::text)
(3 rows)

雖然都是等值查詢,但執行計劃中dwbh='6323'和dwbh='24'返回的行數(rows)卻不一樣,一個是rows=30,一個是rows=10,從生成資料的指令碼來看,'6323'和'24'的rows應該是一樣的,但執行計劃顯示的結果卻不同,原因是計算選擇率時'6323'出現在高頻值中,因此與其他值不同.
計算過程解析

stakind3    | 3
staop3      | 664
stanumbers3 | {0.819578}
stavalues3  | 

條件語句是等值表示式,使用的運算子是"="(字串等值比較,texteq/eqsel/eqjoinsel),因此使用的統計資訊是高頻值MCV(注意:staop1=98,這是字串等值比較).'6323'出現在高頻值中,選擇率為0.0003,因此rows=100,000x0.0003=30.而'24'沒有出現在高頻值中,選擇率=(1-0.0003)/abs(stadistinct)/Tuples=(1-0.0003)/abs(-0.10015)/100000=0.000099820269595606590000,rows=(1-0.0003)/abs(stadistinct)=10(取整).

單條件比較查詢
測試指令碼:

testdb=# create table t_int(c1 int,c2 varchar(20));
CREATE TABLE
testdb=# 
testdb=# insert into t_int select generate_series(1,100000)/10,'C2'||generate_series(1,100000)/100;
INSERT 0 100000
testdb=# ANALYZE t_int;
ANALYZE
testdb=# select oid from pg_class where relname='t_int';
  oid

查詢語句:

testdb=# explain verbose select * from t_int where c1 < 2312;
                            QUERY PLAN                             
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on public.t_int  (cost=0.00..1790.00 rows=23231 width=9)
   Output: c1, c2
   Filter: (t_int.c1 < 2312)
(3 rows)

SQL使用了非等值查詢(<,int4lt/scalarltsel/scalarltjoinsel),結合統計資訊中MCV和直方圖使用,
由於2312均小於MCV中的值,因此根據MCV得出的選擇率為0.
根據直方圖計算的選擇率=(1-0.0003)x(23+(2312-2287-1)/(2388-2287))/100=0.2323065247,rows=100000x0.2323065247=23231(取整)
其中:
除高頻值外的其他數值佔比=(1-0.0003)
直方圖中的總槽數=陣列元素總數-1即101-1=100
2312落在第24個槽中,槽佔比=(23+(2312-2287-1)/(2388-2287))/100
