Hello,
the following query seems to take ages to get executed. However I am
more than sure (as you can see from the explain analyse) that uses all
the correct indexes. In general I have serious issues with joins in my
database. This is a Postgres ver. 9.0 running postgis with the
"_int.sql" contrib enabled. Further more I think that the execution of
this query seriously degrades the performance of the database. I had to
device this query and run it like an overnight batch to populate a
table as I couldn't afford users to execute it over and over in a "need
to do" base. Unfortunately it is still slow and some times it either
brings down the whole database (my insertions are buffered on the app
server) or it never completes before morning.

A few more information: feed_all_y2012m07.message_copies_wk2 has 24.5
million rows only for the 17th of July and more or less the same amount
for rows per day since the 15th that I started populating it. So I guess
we are looking around 122million rows. The tables are populated with
around 16K rows per minute.
As always any help will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards

Misestimated row counts... did you try running an analyze, or upping
statistic targets?

I have run analyse every so often. I think the problem is that as I get
16K new rows every minutes, the "stats" are always out... Possible?

It may not help much with any skew in your data that results from
divergent data appearing, but you can update the statistics targets
for those columns and analyze again, and the planner should have much
better information about the distributions of their data. The max
stats target is 10000, but the default is 100. Increasing it even
just to 500 or 1000 should help the planner significantly.

Looking at this:
" -> Index Scan using
idx_message_copies_wk2_date_src_pos_partial on message_copies_wk2
message_copies (cost=0.00..19057.93 rows=52 width=32) (actual

" Index Cond: ((date_trunc('day'::text,
msg_date_rec) = '2012-07-17 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)
AND (src_id = 1))"
" Filter: ((date_part('day'::text,
msg_date_rec) = 17::double precision) AND (NOT (((((pos_georef1)::text
|| (pos_georef2)::text) || (pos_georef3)::text) ||
(pos_georef4)::text) IS NULL)) AND (((((pos_georef1)::text ||
(pos_georef2)::text) || (pos_georef3)::text) || (pos_georef4)::text)
<> ''::text))"
It's very possible.
I think pg 9.1 had a fix for that, but I'm not sure it will help in
your case, I'd have to know what that index looks like.

Here is the index:
CREATE INDEX idx_message_copies_wk2_date_src_pos_partial
ON feed_all_y2012m07.message_copies_wk2
USING btree
(date_trunc('day'::text, msg_date_rec), src_id, (((pos_georef1::text

I suppose that this is some kind of postgres.conf tweak?

On this Ubuntu installation the default_statistics_target = 1000 and not
100. Do you think that this might be an issue?

I think the real problem is that the planner has no hope of doing
anything very accurate with such an unwieldy filter condition. I'd look
at ways of making the filter conditions simpler, perhaps by recasting
the data representation. In particular, that's a horridly bad way of
asking whether some columns are empty, which I gather is the intent.
If you really want to do it just like that, creating an index on the
concatenation expression would guide ANALYZE to collect some stats about
it, but it would probably be a lot more efficient to put together an AND
or OR of tests on the individual columns.

So what you suggest is to forget all together the concatenation of the
georef1/2/3/4 and instead alter my query with something like:
georef1 is not null and not georeg1 = ''....etc for georef2 3 and 4
That would require to alter my index and have the four georef columns
separately in it and not as a concatenation and so on for the partial
index part. And a final thing, you seem to imply that the indexes are
used by the analyser to collect statistics even if they are not used. So
an index serves not only as a way to speed up targeted queries but also
to provide better statistics to the analyzer?

Nope. You should generally avoid setting default_statistics_target too
high anyway; leave it where it is and use ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN
... SET STATISTICS to raise the targets on columns where you're seeing
bad statistics estimates.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-altertable.html
Also make sure autovaccum is running frequently so it keeps the stats up
to date.

the georef test can be simplified using coalesce:
> and (message_copies.pos_georef1 || message_copies.pos_georef2 || message_copies.pos_georef3 || message_copies.pos_georef4) <> ''
> and not (message_copies.pos_georef1 || message_copies.pos_georef2 || message_copies.pos_georef3 || message_copies.pos_georef4) is null
=>
and coaesce (
(message_copies.pos_georef1 || message_copies.pos_georef2 || message_copies.pos_georef3 || message_copies.pos_georef4),
'') <> ''
In order to avoid this test at query time you might add a boolean column message_copies.pos.has_georef,
and keep it up to date with a before insert or update trigger. This will allow to shorten your index definition and simplify the planner task a little bit.
Moreover it will fasten your query in cases when the index don't get used.
As Tom already mentioned it, it may make sense not to concatenate the georef within the index, but keep them separated, or even keep them in different indexes.
Which is the best depend on the other queries running against this table
HTH,

You're using extract(day...) to define partitions? You might want to
rethink that. The planner has got absolutely no intelligence about
the behavior of extract, and in particular doesn't realize that the
date_trunc condition implies the extract condition; so that's another
part of the cause of the estimation error here.
What's usually recommended for partitioning is simple equality or
range constraints, such as "msg_date_rec >= 'date1' AND
msg_date_rec < 'date2'", which the planner does have a fair amount
of intelligence about.
Now, you can generalize that to equality or range constraints using
an expression; for instance there'd be no problem to partition on
date_trunc('day', msg_date_rec) rather than msg_date_rec directly,
so long as your queries always use that same expression. But you
should not expect that the planner can deduce very much about the
correlations between results of different functions.

I think you got this wrong here. If you see the query again you will see
that I do use equality. The problem is that my "equality" occurs
by extracting the date from the msg_date_rec column. To put it in other
words, for not using the "extract" I should have an additional
column only with the "date" number to perform the equality. Don't you
feel that this is not right since I have the actual date? The constrain
within the table that defines the partition is as follows:
CONSTRAINT message_copies_wk0_date CHECK (date_part('day'::text,
msg_date_rec) >= 1::double precision AND date_part('day'::text,
msg_date_rec) <= 7::double precision)
I see not problem at this. The planner gets it right and "hits" the
correct table every time. So unless if there is a technique here that I
completely miss,
where is the problem?

OK regarding the index I use... I follow your second advice about
efficiency with individual columns and changed it to:
CREATE INDEX idx_message_copies_wk2_date_src_pos_partial
ON feed_all_y2012m07.message_copies_wk2
USING btree
(date_trunc('day'::text, msg_date_rec), src_id, pos_georef1,
pos_georef2, pos_georef3, pos_georef4)
TABLESPACE "index"
WHERE
pos_georef1 IS NOT NULL
AND NOT pos_georef1::text = ''::text
AND pos_georef2 IS NOT NULL
AND NOT pos_georef2::text = ''::text
AND pos_georef3 IS NOT NULL
AND NOT pos_georef3::text = ''::text
AND pos_georef4 IS NOT NULL
AND NOT pos_georef4::text = ''::text;
The query has been changed as well as follows now:
SELECT
src_id,
date_trunc('day', message_copies.msg_date_rec) as date_count,
message_copies.pos_georef1,
message_copies.pos_georef2,
message_copies.pos_georef3,
message_copies.pos_georef4,
ais_server.array_accum(CASE WHEN msg_type BETWEEN 1 and 3
THEN message_copies.msg_id END) as msgA_array,
ais_server.array_accum(CASE WHEN msg_type = 18 THEN
message_copies.msg_id END) as msgB_std_array,
ais_server.array_accum(CASE WHEN msg_type = 19 THEN
message_copies.msg_id END) as msgB_ext_array,
uniq
(
ais_server.array_accum(CASE WHEN obj_type = 'SHIP_TYPE_A'
THEN obj_mmsi END)
) as mmsi_type_A_array,
uniq
(
ais_server.array_accum(CASE WHEN obj_type = 'SHIP_TYPE_B'
THEN obj_mmsi END)
) as mmsi_type_B_array,
avg(ship_speed) / 10.0 as avg_speed,
avg(ship_heading) as avg_heading,
avg(ship_course) / 10.0 as avg_course,
ST_Multi(ST_Collect(ship_pos_messages.pos_point)) as geom
from
feed_all_y2012m07.message_copies join
(feed_all_y2012m07.ship_pos_messages join
ais_server.ship_objects on (ship_pos_messages.obj_id =
ship_objects.obj_id))
on (message_copies.msg_id = ship_pos_messages.msg_id)
where
extract('day' from message_copies.msg_date_rec) = 17
and date_trunc('day', message_copies.msg_date_rec) = '2012-07-17'
and message_copies.src_id = 5
and not message_copies.pos_georef1 = '' and not
message_copies.pos_georef2 = '' and not message_copies.pos_georef3 = ''
and not message_copies.pos_georef4 = ''
and message_copies.pos_georef1 is not null and
message_copies.pos_georef2 is not null and message_copies.pos_georef3 is
not null and message_copies.pos_georef4 is not null
and extract('day' from ship_pos_messages.msg_date_rec) = 17
group by src_id, date_count, message_copies.pos_georef1,
message_copies.pos_georef2, message_copies.pos_georef3,
message_copies.pos_georef4;
I am not sure that I can see an improvement, at least on src_id that
have lots of msg_id per day the query never returned even 5 hours later
running "exaplain analyze". For smaller src_id
(message wise) there might be some improvement or it was just the
analyse that I run. As I said the stats goes quickly out of scope
because of the big number of updates. So it looks like that
it is not the "funny" "where" concatenation or some kind of index
construction problem. Which brings us back to the issue of the
"statistics_target" on per column. My problem is that given the
query plan I provided you yesterday, I am not sure which columns
statistics_target to touch and what short of number to introduce. Is
there any rule of thumb?
Kind regards

What's the size of your index, tables, and such?
In GB I mean, not tuples.

The message_copies_wk2 that I currently hit is 13GB and 11 the Indexes, the
ship_a_pos_messages_wk2 is 17GB and 2.5MB the index and the ship_objects
is 150MB table and index approx.

It's this part of the query that's taking 3.2 hours.
Move the filtered message_copies to a CTE, and the filtered
ship_pos_messages join to another CTE. That should (in my experience)
get you better performance.

Btw... did you try the hash thing?

Not yet as I am trying at present to simplify the index getting the
georefs out of it. Don't know if this is a good idea but I though that
since I am not testing (yet) any equality other than making sure that
the georefs are not null or empty, I could avoid having it in the index,
thus reducing its size a lot... At least for now.....
