I have a table virtualmachineresources, which has 100k+ rows, it has
columns 'machine` and `cluster`, some rows the cluster field is empty. it
has repeating rows of machine + with/without cluster, hence I want to use
the distinct() method.
using .values().distinct().count(), it return 2k rows
{{{
In [6]: VirtualMachineResources.objects.all().values('machine', 'cluster')
...: .distinct().count()
Out[6]: 2247
}}}
When I loop through the distinct query
{{{
for resource in VirtualMachineResources.objects.all().values('machine',
'cluster').distinct():
print(resource['machine'], resource['cluster'])
}}}
I observed it return 100k rows, with repeating rows that the same
'machine` with/without the cluster.
