The query to do everything you list here should be: select table1.id,bit_count(bit_or(1<<table1.sid)) as count1,bit_count(bit_or(1<<table3.sid)) as count2,table2.url as url from table1 left join table3 using(id) left join table2 using(id) group by table1.id; As you can see, count is never used... which is why I said you probably don't need it.
