这两天听了将近20场演讲,感觉收获很多,最深的感觉就是自己还有很长的路要走。有几个点记录一下:

昨天听老猫讲,提到一个普遍的问题就是Oracle里count(*)、count(1)和count(主键)到底哪个快的问题。这个问题看起来很简单,每个人都会有自己的答案,去百度上搜会出来一大堆帖子来讲哪个更快。但是老猫说了它们三个其实是一样的,我听到之后也觉得挺诧异的,因为我记得别人跟我说过count(主键)会快,然后自己简单想了一下,觉得好像是那么回事的就没有深入去追究。接着老猫说官方有这样的说法这三个其实是等价的。晚上回来之后到MOS上查了一下,居然被我找到了How the Oracle CBO Chooses a Path for the SELECT COUNT(*) Command (文档 ID 124717.1)。这篇文档讲的就是在CBO优化器模式下,Oracle怎样去评估没有where条件select count(*)和select count(colum)语句的最优路径。

1、创建测试表并设计测试场景:

--创建测试表sys@ORCL>create table journal_entries   2  (id_je number(8) ,  3  date_je date not null,  4  balanced number ,  5  constraint indx_ecr_id_je primary key(id_je)  6  );Table created.--创建索引sys@ORCL>create index indx_ecr_date_je_balanced on journal_entries(date_je,balanced);Index created.sys@ORCL>create index indx_ecr_balanced_date_je on journal_entries(balanced,date_je);Index created.sys@ORCL>create index indx_ecr_balanced on journal_entries(balanced);Index created.--插入测试数据sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(1,sysdate,11);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(2,sysdate,21);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(3,sysdate,31);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(4,sysdate,41);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(5,sysdate,51);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(6,sysdate,61);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(7,sysdate,71);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(8,sysdate,81);1 row created.sys@ORCL>insert into journal_entries values(9,sysdate,91);1 row created.sys@ORCL>commit;Commit complete.--收集统计信息sys@ORCL>exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(ownname=>USER,tabname=>'JOURNAL_ENTRIES',cascade=>true);PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

设计四个场景进行对比:

Sel1 : Select count(*) from journal_entries;
Sel2 : Select count(1) from journal_entries;
Sel3 : Select count(id_je) from journal_entries;

Sel4 : Select count(balanced) from journal_entries;

1、场景1和场景2等价

For CBO, Sel1 and Sel2 are strictly equivalent

sys@ORCL>alter session set statistics_level=all;Session altered.sys@ORCL>select count(*) from journal_entries;  COUNT(*)----------         9sys@ORCL>select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'runstats_last'));PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL_ID  5ja3ukp4wd73p, child number 0-------------------------------------select count(*) from journal_entriesPlan hash value: 42135099---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Id  | Operation        | Name           | Starts | E-Rows | A-Rows |   A-Time   | Buffers |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |                |      1 |        |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   1 |  SORT AGGREGATE  |                |      1 |      1 |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   2 |   INDEX FULL SCAN| INDX_ECR_ID_JE |      1 |      9 |      9 |00:00:00.01 |       1 |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------14 rows selected.sys@ORCL>select count(1) from journal_entries;  COUNT(1)----------         9sys@ORCL>select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'runstats_last'));PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL_ID  gbxjjuqj9j7ww, child number 0-------------------------------------select count(1) from journal_entriesPlan hash value: 42135099---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Id  | Operation        | Name           | Starts | E-Rows | A-Rows |   A-Time   | Buffers |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |                |      1 |        |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   1 |  SORT AGGREGATE  |                |      1 |      1 |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   2 |   INDEX FULL SCAN| INDX_ECR_ID_JE |      1 |      9 |      9 |00:00:00.01 |       1 |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------14 rows selected.

可以看到两个语句的执行计划是完全相同的。

2、场景3也与前两个场景等价,因为id_je有NOT NULL约束

For Sel3, CBO does the same as for Sel1 and Sel2 since "id_je" has a NOT NULL constraint.

sys@ORCL>select count(id_je) from journal_entries;COUNT(ID_JE)------------           9sys@ORCL>select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'runstats_last'));PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL_ID  b1p4v15dwx7hs, child number 0-------------------------------------select count(id_je) from journal_entriesPlan hash value: 42135099---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Id  | Operation        | Name           | Starts | E-Rows | A-Rows |   A-Time   | Buffers |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |                |      1 |        |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   1 |  SORT AGGREGATE  |                |      1 |      1 |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   2 |   INDEX FULL SCAN| INDX_ECR_ID_JE |      1 |      9 |      9 |00:00:00.01 |       1 |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------14 rows selected.

可以看到执行计划与前两个也是完全相同的。

4、场景4跟前边3个不同,因为balanced列上没有NOT NULL约束,但是balanced列上有索引,那会走这个列上的索引么?我们来看一下执行计划:

sys@ORCL>select count(balanced) from journal_entries;COUNT(BALANCED)---------------              9sys@ORCL>select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'runstats_last'));PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL_ID  bc3bc8c0fg14z, child number 0-------------------------------------select count(balanced) from journal_entriesPlan hash value: 3638043346--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Id  | Operation        | Name                      | Starts | E-Rows | A-Rows |   A-Time   | Buffers |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |                           |      1 |        |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   1 |  SORT AGGREGATE  |                           |      1 |      1 |      1 |00:00:00.01 |       1 ||   2 |   INDEX FULL SCAN| INDX_ECR_DATE_JE_BALANCED |      1 |      9 |      9 |00:00:00.01 |       1 |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------14 rows selected.

我们看到这个执行计划没有走balanced列上的索引,而是走了和date_je的联合索引。这个可以查看另一篇文档:Note:67522.1 Why is my index not used?

小结一下:

我这里只是简单的从执行计划上看count(*)、count(1)和count(主键)其实是一致,MOS的文档中详细的讲解了Oracle是如何评估执行计划的,也可以使用10053 event查看CBO优化器是如何做出选择的。由于我的功力还不够,对于10053事件还不是很明白,暂时就先不做演示了,要不哪说错了就不好了,这也可以做为以后博客分享的内容。

从这个事情上来看,我们对于一件事情应该做一个深入的研究,有充足的证据来证明,尤其是想要在某一方面有深入发展的时候。
