我在Postgresql 9.1中有2个表 – flight_2012_09_12包含大约500,000行,position_2012_09_12包含大约550万行.我正在运行一个简单的连接查询,它需要很长时间才能完成,尽管表格不小,但我确信在执行过程中会有一些重大收获.
查询是：
SELECT f.departure,f.arrival,p.callsign,p.flightkey,p.time,p.lat,p.lon,p.altitude_ft,p.speed
FROM position_2012_09_12 AS p
JOIN flight_2012_09_12 AS f
ON p.flightkey = f.flightkey
WHERE p.lon < 0
AND p.time BETWEEN '2012-9-12 0:0:0' AND '2012-9-12 23:0:0'
解释分析的输出是：
Hash Join (cost=239891.03..470396.82 rows=4790498 width=51) (actual time=29203.830..45777.193 rows=4403717 loops=1) Hash Cond: (f.flightkey = p.flightkey) -> Seq Scan on flight_2012_09_12 f (cost=0.00..1934.31 rows=70631 width=12) (actual time=0.014..220.494 rows=70631 loops=1) -> Hash (cost=158415.97..158415.97 rows=3916885 width=43) (actual time=29201.012..29201.012 rows=3950815 loops=1) Buckets: 2048 Batches: 512 (originally 256) Memory Usage: 1025kB -> Seq Scan on position_2012_09_12 p (cost=0.00..158415.97 rows=3916885 width=43) (actual time=0.006..14630.058 rows=3950815 loops=1) Filter: ((lon < 0::double precision) AND ("time" >= '2012-09-12 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND ("time" <= '2012-09-12 23:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) Total runtime: 58522.767 ms
我认为问题在于位置表上的顺序扫描,但我无法弄清楚它为什么存在.带索引的表结构如下：

我想不出任何其他方式来重写查询,所以我很难过.如果当前设置尽可能好,那么它在我看来它应该比现在快得多.任何帮助将非常感激.
您获得顺序扫描的原因是Postgres认为它将比使用索引读取更少的磁盘页面.这可能是正确的.考虑一下,如果使用非覆盖索引,则需要读取所有匹配的索引页.它本质上输出行标识符列表.然后,数据库引擎需要读取每个匹配的数据页面.
原文链接：https://www.f2er.com/postgresql/191926.html你的位置表每行使用71个字节,加上geom类型所需的(我假设16个字节用于说明),产生87个字节. Postgres页面是8192个字节.所以每页大约有90行.
您的查询与5563070行中的3950815匹配,或约占总数的70％.假设数据是随机分布的,关于你的where过滤器,找到没有匹配行的数据页面几乎有30％^ 90的可能性.这基本上没什么.因此,无论索引有多好,您仍然必须阅读所有数据页.如果您还要阅读所有页面,表扫描通常是一种很好的方法.
一个人离开这里,是我说的非覆盖指数.如果您准备创建可以自己回答查询的索引,则可以避免查找数据页,这样您就可以重新进入游戏.我建议以下值得关注：
flight_2012_09_12 (flightkey,departure,arrival) position_2012_09_12 (filghtkey,time,lon,...) position_2012_09_12 (lon,flightkey,...) position_2012_09_12 (time,long,...)
这里的点代表您选择的其余列.你只需要一个位置上的指数,但很难说哪个指数最好.第一种方法可以允许对预先排序的数据进行合并连接,其中读取整个第二索引的成本进行过滤.第二个和第三个将允许预过滤数据,但需要散列连接.给出在散列连接中看起来有多少成本,合并连接可能是一个不错的选择.
由于您的查询需要每行87个字节中的52个,并且索引具有开销,因此您可能无法获得索引占用的空间(如果有的话),而不是表本身.
