I have lots of tables referencing onp_crm_entity(entity_id) so I expect the poor performance of deleting from it is caused by all the triggers firing to check FKI-constraints.


Andreas, do you have indexes on FK columns in child tables?
If not – there is your problem.

Andreas, do you have indexes on FK columns in child tables?

If not – there is your problem.

  Yes, they have indexes, but deleting 1M rows still results in calling the 
triggers 1M times * number of FKs...   -- Andreas Joseph Krogh CTO / Partner -

The classic problem is that  one/more of your referring tables is
non-trivial in size and you are missing  an index on the referring column(s).

Insure that this condition does not exist before butchering your design :-)

Don't use EAV.  It's a bad design pattern, especially for you, and
you've just discovered one of the reasons why.

(In fact, I am just today dismantling an EAV database and normalizing
it, and so far application throughput is up 500%)
