Optimization of IN with nested SELECT -------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4007 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4007 Project: Derby Issue Type: Bug Components: Performance Affects Versions: 10.3.1.4 Environment: Linux Reporter: Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen Priority: Minor The problem is with the following query: UPDATE summa_records SET base='foobar' WHERE id IN ( SELECT parentId FROM summa_relations WHERE childId='horizon_2615441'); It takes in the order of 30s to run when we expect something in the order of 1-2ms. We have a setup with two tables summa_records: 1,5M rows summa_relations: ~350000 rows summa_records have and 'id' column that is also indexed and is the primary key. The summa_relations table holds mappings between different ids. In our case the nested SELECT produces 2 hits, say, 'foo' and 'bar'. So the UPDATE on these two hits should be quite snappy. If we run the SELECT alone it runs in an instant, and also if we run with hardcoded ids for the IN clause: UPDATE summa_records SET base='foobar' WHERE id IN ('foo', 'bar'); We have instant execution. I'll attach a query plan in a sec. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
