Hello,
I went this way, but for a large number of user_id's, it's quite slow:
CREATE VIEW v_views AS
SELECT user_id, product_id, count(*) as views
FROM viewlog
GROUP BY user_id, product_id
SELECT
DISTINCT user_id,
(SELECT product_id FROM v_views inn WHERE inn.user_id = out.user_id
ORDER BY views DESC LIMIT 1) as product_id,
(SELECT views FROM v_views inn WHERE inn.user_id = out.user_id ORDER
BY
views DESC LIMIT 1) as views
FROM
v_views out
Does this work faster?
select x.user_id,y.product_id,x.count from
(select user_id, max(count ) as count from (select user_id,product_id,
count(*) as count from viewlog group by user_id,product_id) as x group by
user_id
) as x inner join
(select user_id,product_id, count(*) as count1 from viewlog group by
user_id,product_id ) as y
on x.user_id=y.user_id and x.count=y.count1
It does, yes. Actually, pretty silly of me not to implement it that way,
thank you.
Since I already have the view, the query now looks like this:
select
x.user_id,
y.product_id,
x.views
from (
select
user_id,
max(views) as views
from
v_views
group by
user_id
) as x
inner join v_views as y
on x.user_id=y.user_id and x.views=y.views
And CTEs would also help here :)
