Subject: 7.4 - FK constraint performance
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2004 16:06:10 -0800 (PST)
Message-ID: <20040212000610.13913.qmail@web60806.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)
PostgreSQL 7.4 on i386-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
-- about 10 records
CREATE TABLE my.Small
(
id my.dint NOT NULL,
code my.dvalue NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk_1 PRIMARY KEY (id),
) WITHOUT OIDS;
-- about 80M rows
CREATE TABLE my.Large
(
id my.dlong NOT NULL,
small_id my.dint NOT NULL,
value my.value,
CONSTRAINT pk_2 PRIMARY KEY (id),
CONSTRAINT fk_2 FOREIGN KEY (small_id) REFERENCES my.small (id) ON UPDATE
RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT,
) WITHOUT OIDS;
CREATE INDEX small_fk ON my.Large USING btree (small_id);
---------------------------------------------
The fowllowing queiries run in less than 40 ms.
1) select 1 from Large where small_id = 239
2) SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "my"."Large" x WHERE "small_id" = 239 FOR UPDATE OF x
3) delete from Small where id = 239
Feb 11 18:07:36 srv07 postgres[2091]: [91-1] LOG: statement: SELECT 1 FROM
ONLY "my"."Large" x WHERE "small_id" = $1 FOR UPDATE OF x Feb 11 18:10:41 srv07
postgres[2091]: [92-1] LOG: duration: 185273.262 ms
When I try to delete record, it takes > 3 min. Why is it taking so long if
practically the same select query (see (2)) is running very quickly. Anything
that can be done to fix it?
Thanks
