Subject: [PERFORM] Poor performance when deleting from entity-attribute-value 
type master-table

 

Hi all.

 

Using PG-9.4.0 I'm seeing this trying to delete from an "entity"-master table:

 

*# explain analyze     delete from onp_crm_entity where entity_id IN (select 
tmp.delivery_id from temp_delete_delivery_id tmp);
                                                                     QUERY 
PLAN                                                                     
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Delete on onp_crm_entity  (cost=0.43..5673.40 rows=1770 width=12) (actual 
time=7.370..7.370 rows=0 loops=1)
    ->  Nested Loop  (cost=0.43..5673.40 rows=1770 width=12) (actual 
time=0.050..1.374 rows=108 loops=1)
          ->  Seq Scan on temp_delete_delivery_id tmp  (cost=0.00..27.70 
rows=1770 width=14) (actual time=0.014..0.080 rows=108 loops=1)
          ->  Index Scan using onp_crm_entity_pkey on onp_crm_entity  
(cost=0.43..3.18 rows=1 width=14) (actual time=0.010..0.011 rows=1 loops=108)
                Index Cond: (entity_id = tmp.delivery_id)
  Planning time: 0.314 ms
  Trigger for constraint onp_crm_activity_entity_id_fkey: time=4.141 calls=108

 Trigger for constraint ...

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.

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