PostgreSQL 对IN,EXISTS,ANY/ALL,JOIN的sql优化方案-巨人网络通讯

测试环境：

postgres=# select version();       
                         version

IN语句

查询要求：找出那些余额(balance)大于0的每个分支(branch)在表在pgbench_accounts中有多少个账户

1.使用IN子句　

SELECT
  count( aid ),bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts
WHERE
  bid IN ( SELECT bid FROM pgbench_branches WHERE bbalance > 0 )
GROUP BY
  bid;

2.使用ANY子句

SELECT
  count( aid ),bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts
WHERE
  bid = ANY ( SELECT bid FROM pgbench_branches WHERE bbalance > 0 )
GROUP BY
  bid;

3.使用EXISTS子句

SELECT
  count( aid ),bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts
WHERE
  EXISTS ( SELECT bid FROM pgbench_branches WHERE bbalance > 0 AND pgbench_accounts.bid = pgbench_branches.bid )
GROUP BY
  bid;

4.使用INNER JOIN

SELECT
  count( aid ),a.bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts a
  JOIN pgbench_branches b ON a.bid = b.bid
WHERE
  b.bbalance > 0
GROUP BY
  a.bid;

在完成这个查询要求的时候，有人可能会假设exists和inner join性能可能会更好，因为他们可以使用两表连接的逻辑和优化。而IN和ANY子句需要使用子查询。

然而，PostgreSQL(10版本之后)已经智能的足以对上面四种写法产生相同的执行计划！

所有上面的写法都会产生相同的执行计划：

                                      QUERY PLAN

                    Rows Removed by Filter: 8

那么，我们是否可以得出这样的结论:我们可以随意地编写查询，而PostgreSQL的智能将会处理其余的问题?！

等等!

如果我们考虑排除情况，事情会变得不同。

排除查询

查询要求：找出那些余额(balance)不大于0的每个分支(branch)在表在pgbench_accounts中有多少个账户

1.使用NOT IN

2.使用>ALL

SELECT
  count( aid ),bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts
WHERE
  bid > ALL ( SELECT bid FROM pgbench_branches WHERE bbalance > 0 )
GROUP BY

执行计划:

                                     QUERY PLAN

3.使用NOT EXISTS

SELECT
  count( aid ),bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts
WHERE
  NOT EXISTS ( SELECT bid FROM pgbench_branches WHERE bbalance > 0 AND pgbench_accounts.bid = pgbench_branches.bid )
GROUP BY
  bid;

执行计划:

                                      QUERY PLAN

4.使用LEFT JOIN和IS NULL

SELECT
  count( aid ),a.bid
FROM
  pgbench_accounts a
  LEFT JOIN pgbench_branches b ON a.bid = b.bid AND b.bbalance > 0
WHERE
  b.bid IS NULL
GROUP BY
  a.bid;

执行计划:

                                      QUERY PLAN                                      
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                    Filter: (bbalance > 0)
                    Rows Removed by Filter: 8
 Planning Time: 0.231 ms
 Execution Time: 147.180 ms
(22 rows) 
postgres=#

NOT IN 和 > ALL生成执行计划都包含了一个子查询。他们是各自独立的。

而NOT EXISTS和LEFT JOIN生成了相同的执行计划。

这些hash连接(或hash anti join)是完成查询要求的最灵活的方式。这也是推荐exists或join的原因。因此，推荐使用exists或join的经验法则是有效的。

但是，我们继续往下看! 即使有了子查询执行计划，NOT IN子句的执行时间也会更好?

是的。PostgreSQL做了出色的优化，PostgreSQL将子查询计划进行了hash处理。因此PostgreSQL对如何处理IN子句有了更好的理解，这是一种逻辑思维方式，因为很多人倾向于使用IN子句。子查询返回的行很少，但即使子查询返回几百行，也会发生同样的情况。

但是，如果子查询返回大量行(几十万行)怎么办?让我们尝试一个简单的测试：

CREATE TABLE t1 AS
SELECT * FROM generate_series(0, 500000) id;
 
CREATE TABLE t2 AS
SELECT (random() * 4000000)::integer id
FROM generate_series(0, 4000000);
 
ANALYZE t1;
ANALYZE t2;
 
EXPLAIN SELECT id
FROM t1
WHERE id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM t2);

执行计划：

    QUERY PLAN                 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Gather (cost=1000.00..15195064853.01 rows=250000 width=4)
  Workers Planned: 1
  -> Parallel Seq Scan on t1 (cost=0.00..15195038853.01 rows=147059 width=4)
     Filter: (NOT (SubPlan 1))
     SubPlan 1
      -> Materialize (cost=0.00..93326.01 rows=4000001 width=4)
         -> Seq Scan on t2 (cost=0.00..57700.01 rows=4000001 width=4)
(7 rows)
 
postgres=#

这里，执行计划将子查询进行了物化。代价评估变成了15195038853.01。(PostgreSQL的默认设置，如果t2表的行低于100k，会将子查询进行hash)。这样就会严重影响性能。因此，对于那种子查询返回的行数很少的场景，IN子句可以起到很好的作用。

其它注意点

有的！在我们用不同的方式写查询的时候，可能有数据类型的转换。

比如，语句：

EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM emp WHERE gen = ANY(ARRAY['M', 'F']);

就会发生隐式的类型转换：

Seq Scan on emp (cost=0.00..1.04 rows=2 width=43) (actual time=0.023..0.026 rows=3 loops=1)
 Filter: ((gen)::text = ANY ('{M,F}'::text[]))

这里的(gen)::text就发生了类型转换。如果在大表上，这种类型转换的代价会很高，因此，PostgreSQL对IN子句做了更好的处理。

EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM emp WHERE gen IN ('M','F');
 
 Seq Scan on emp (cost=0.00..1.04 rows=3 width=43) (actual time=0.030..0.034 rows=3 loops=1)
  Filter: (gen = ANY ('{M,F}'::bpchar[]))

将IN子句转换成了ANY子句，没有对gen列进行类型转换。而是将M\F转成了bpchar(内部等价于char)

总结

简单来说，exists和直接join表通常比较好。

很多情况下，PostgreSQL将IN子句换成被hash的子计划。在一些特殊场景下，IN可以获得更好的执行计划。

以上为个人经验，希望能给大家一个参考，也希望大家多多支持脚本之家。如有错误或未考虑完全的地方，望不吝赐教。
