Hello all. I have an academic project that I'm working on and, as I'm
relatively new to optimization techniques and database design, I'm
wondering if some of you can give me some pointers. Below is the schema
(to model baseball statistics), and I'm pretty much stuck with it at
this point. If anyone has any suggestions involving changing the
schema, I'd appreciate hearing them just for future reference.
There are several interesting queries that I've been constructing just
to get a feel for this schema, and given that some of these tables
contain 100,000-200,000 tuples, some queries are taking a good 5-10
seconds to execute. I'm just wondering if this is simply the fault of
my schema or are these queries poorly constructed? Here are some
queries I've been trying:
Here's a query for the top ten all time home run leaders:
select P.first_name, P.last_name, S.player_id, sum(B.hr) as hr,
(sum(B.h)::float / sum(B.ab)::float) ab
from statistics S, batting_stats B, players P
where S.id=B.id and S.player_id=P.id and B.ab>0
group by P.first_name, P.last_name, S.player_id
order by hr desc limit 10;
Select the 10 highest batting averages of all time where the batter had
600 or more at bats. Also gather the name, year, team, hits, at bats...
select (B.h::float / B.ab) as avg, B.h, B.ab, S.year, P.first_name,
P.last_name, T.city, T.name
from batting_stats B, statistics S, players P, Teams T
where B.ab > 600 and S.id=B.id and S.player_id=P.id and S.team_id=T.id
order by avg desc limit 10;
To find the names of the single season home run leaders, along with the
total number of home runs, the team name/city and the year:
select P.first_name, P.last_name, B.hr, T.name, T.city, S.year from
statistics S, batting_stats B, players P, teams T
where (S.id=B.id) and
(S.player_id=P.id) and
(B.hr>30) and
(T.id=S.team_id) limit 10;
You get the idea. These queries take a while. Is this just the way it
is or there things that can be done to optimize this?
One separate issue (the reason why the above examples are all about
batting statistics) I'm having is representing the innings pitched
statistic. The way it is often represented (and the way it is done in
this schema) is something like this 123.0 means exactly 123 innings
pitched, 123.1 means 123 1/3 innings, and 123.2 means 123 2/3 innings
pitched. I'm contemplating the best way to write a function that knows
how to sum these values accurately. Is this something that can be done
with PL/PGSQL or should I go straight to something like PLPERL?
Alternatively, I could research a way to represent fractions in the DB
and write a script to convert all values in this column. Any advice
here??
Thanks in advance for any thoughts, comments, suggestions.

See the PostgreSQL book review page:
http:\\techdocs.postgresql.org\bookreviews.php
There, you will find reviews of several good books on database design.

That entirely depends. If you're doing this on a 3-year-old laptop,
5-10 seconds is a *good* time. But not on a Proliant 9000.
Here's the rules of indexing:
1. All JOIN columns should be indexed.
2. All criteria (WHERE) columns should be indexed, except
those that have a very limited range of values (e.g. BOOLEAN).
3. All ORDER BY columns should be indexed, with the same exception.
4. Multi-column indexes are seldom useful for queries.
5. VACUUM should be performed regularly.
6. If SELECT is very fast and INSERT is very slow, try removing a few
indexes.
Also, you can muck around with runtime settings to you heart's content,
and moving the log files (pgsql/data/xlog) to a seperate drive improves
performance. There are no quick answers once you've taken the basic
steps.

the main way i optimise small queries is to image a path with the tables
joining the path (this has it's root in relational algebra and relational
calculus) and then build the query in my head imagining how i can reduce the
amount of 'traffic' flowing up the tree to the selects.
or draw the query as a tree (as ingres does as i seem to remember - great
idea for postgres ??????) like :
select X,Y,Z
|
|
|
/| t1.id=t2.id
/ |
/ |
/ |
table table 2
obviously you'd have more joins and more tables but the aim is the restrict
the amount of data travelling up the tree so subsequent joins contain less
tuples.
if you need them i can dig out some references from books that i have read
(and forgotten !!!) so let me know if i'm only making sense to myself.

Please advise how I can improve performance of query searching for telephone
numbers. I have a table with over a million records of phone numbers in a
single indexed field. To find one phone number takes nearly 20 seconds.
Aside from hardware upgrades, how can I improve the performance of this
query? Thank you in advance.

Please provide the following which will help us to help you:
The output of this commend : select version();
Please prefix your query with "explain analyze" and provide us with both
the query and the output of this command.

That should be virtually instant.
First, the usual suspects: have you run "vacuum analyze" on your table? If
not, do it and try again.
If so, please show us your table structure, index, and query - just fire up
psql and run "\d yourtablename" and "explain <your query>" and send it to us.
Cheers,
Steve
