我知道这可能以前曾被问过,但是我找不到它与SO的搜索。在PostgreSQL中的IN语句性能(和一般情况下)

比方说我Table 1和Table,我应该怎么指望一个查询的性能像这样:

SELECT * FROM TABLE1 WHERE id IN SUBQUERY_ON_TABLE2; 

下井为行的Table 1和Table成长号和ID是TABLE1上的主键。

是的,我知道使用IN是这样一个n00b错误,但TABLE2有一个通用关系(django通用关系)到多个其他表,所以我想不出另一种方式来过滤数据。在TABLE1和TABLE2中,我应该预计哪些(aproximate)行中的行数会因此而注意到性能问题?根据行数的不同,性能是否会呈线性,指数等降级?

当子查询返回的记录数很少,并且由主查询返回的结果行数也很小时,您只需在每个记录上快速查找索引即可。随着返回数据的百分比增加,最终每个人都将切换到使用顺序扫描而不是索引的扫描,以一口吞下整个表格,而不是将其整合在一起。这不是一个简单的性能下降,而是线性或指数性的;随着计划类型的变化,存在主要的不连续性。而这些发生的行数取决于表的大小,所以在那里没有有用的规则。你应该建立一个仿真模型,就像我在下面做的一样,看看你自己的数据集上会发生什么,以了解曲线的样子。

下面是使用PostgreSQL 9.0数据库加载Dell Store 2数据库的工作原理示例。一旦子查询返回1000行,它将对主表进行全表扫描。一旦子查询正在考虑10,000条记录,那么也会变成全表扫描。这些每次运行两次,所以你看到了缓存的性能。如何根据缓存状态和未缓存状态改变性能是一个完整的“另一个话题:
