If you want to speed test the code, please check out, build, and install the current cvs revisions of both libdbi and libdbi-drivers. I've updated the mysql, pgsql, and sqlite3 drivers at this time, but making the remaining drivers compile is trivial. I've added the suggested check to speed up sequential row fetching in mysql. I do see a small but significant decrease in the time required to run gmake check (11.78 vs. 12.51 s), although the test code does not test retrieving boatloads of rows specifically. I'd appreciate if someone with a nice testcase (Olivier?) could give the changes a try and report some numbers. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 -- Master Java SE, Java EE, Eclipse, Spring, Hibernate, JavaScript, jQuery and much more.

Markus, Would it be worth the ugliness of a module-global variable to bury the value of the row index used in the previous call to dbd_mysql.c::dbd_goto_row() inside the MySQL driver itself, side-stepping the function signature change for other drivers? The benefit of avoiding the API change may not be outweighed by the potential fragility of naively tracking the state internally, of course, since in practice folks install and upgrade to new versions of drivers and the libdbi core at the same time, but then again, it may.

If you look at the comments in dbd_mysql.c::dbd_goto_row(), the original author of the mysql driver was well aware of the limitations of his implementation. The reason is that other database APIs, e.g. PostgreSQL, allow to fetch rows from a result set by index, whereas the MySQL API assumes that you step through the rows sequentially. The original design of libdbi appears to somewhat favor PostgreSQL in this respect. Anyway, without having thought about the issue in too much detail, one possible solution comes to mind. We could modify the driver function dbd_goto_row() by passing both the wanted row index rowidx and the current row index currowidx(which libdbi keeps track of anyway). This would allow drivers to decide whether they have to actually seek the position. pgsql doesn't have to anyway, and mysql doesn't have to if rowidx = currowidx+1. This API change would not mandate changes to existing drivers as they may ignore the additional parameter and keep working as before, but it may offer options to speed up queries in some drivers. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 -- Master SQL Server Development, Administration, T-SQL, SSAS, SSIS, SSRS and more.

Re: [libdbi-users] libdbi+mysql speed issues
Hello everyone, I'm following a quite old topic about libdbi speed issues. I was able to track the cause of these issues : The major problem is how libdbi goes from one row to another. RRDTool (the tool that used libdbi and that I was inspecting) is using dbi_result_next_row() function (as stated in libdbi documentation btw). This function moves from one row to another with function dbi_result_seek_row(), incrementing currentRow index each time. This gives a call to dbd_mysql.c::dbd_goto_row() that uses mysql_data_seek() each time... That's why for a query result of 34k rows (yes it happens. No it is not a problem in the query itself), we have tens of thousands of call to this function (which is very low), and this is definitely not needed, because as we use fetch_row(), we automatically move from one row to another. Seeking is just a useless task (as internal driver does not know where we are, and needs to start from row 0 and seek to the given row - where we already were). I'm absolutely not a libdbi user, and I don't know what could be done outside libdbi to not use dbi_result_next_row() and use directly RESULT->onn->driver->functions->fetch_row() directly. Is it possible ? And/or patching dbi_result.c : just check RESULT->currowidx near line 102 before calling doing goto_row() function and call it only if we are not on the good row. Am I right ?

Hi, I'm developing an application that utilizes rrdtool (and the lidbdi interface into rrdtool) heavily and having some performance issues that seem to center around libdbi, # ./dbi dbi_conn_queryf took 0.5866 dbi_result_next_row took 15.4186 looped through 71891 rows # ./mysql MySQL client version: 5.1.56 mysql_query took 0.0021 mysql_fetch_row took 0.5584 looped through 71891 rows libdbi here appears to simply be spectacularly slow, I assume its something that I/the rrdtool libdbi are doing wrong. source for dbi.c and mysql.c follows (yes, i'm a horrible c programmer, I know!). Thanks, -Adam # cat dbi.c #include #include #include int main() { dbi_conn conn; dbi_result result; struct timeval query_start; struct timeval query_end; struct timeval query_elapsed; float real_query_elapsed; struct timeval fetch_start; struct timeval fetch_end; struct timeval fetch_elapsed; float real_fetch_elapsed=0; int rowcount; dbi_initialize(NULL); conn = dbi_conn_new("mysql"); dbi_conn_set_option(conn, "host", "something"); dbi_conn_set_option(conn, "username", "something"); dbi_conn_set_option(conn, "password", "something"); dbi_conn_set_option(conn, "dbname", "something"); dbi_conn_set_option(conn, "encoding", "UTF-8"); if (dbi_conn_connect(conn) < 0) { printf("Could not connect.

Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
