Subject: Speed with offset clause
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2005 20:18:48 +0200
Message-ID: <1c365a8bdeb09957fadda7a6fdc8ff02@implements.be> (raw)

Hi again all,

My queries are now optimised.  They all use the indexes like they 
should.
However, there's still a slight problem when I issue the "offset" 
clause.

We have a table that contains 600.000 records
We display them by 25 in the webpage.
So, when I want the last page, which is: 600k / 25 = page 24000 - 1 = 
23999, I issue the offset of 23999 * 25
This take a long time to run, about 5-10 seconds whereas offset below 
100 take less than a second.

Can I speed this up ?

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Bien à vous,
Kind regards,

Yves Vindevogel
