Re: [PERFORM] How can I speed up this function?
The function I have exits the loop when the count hits 100 yes, but the
inner loop can push the count up as high as necessary to select all the
statements for a transaction, so by the time it exits, the count could
be much higher. I do want to limit the statements, but I want to get
enough for complete transactions.

Hi Gnanavel,
Thanks, but that will only return at most 100 statements. If there is a
transaction with 110 statements then this will not return all the
statements for that transaction. We need to make sure that the function
returns all the statements for a transaction.

We have the following function in our home grown mirroring package, but
it isn't running as fast as we would like. We need to select statements
from the pending_statement table, and we want to select all the
statements for a single transaction (pending_trans) in one go (that is,
we either select all the statements for a transaction, or none of
them).
We select as many blocks of statements as it takes to top the 100
statement limit (so if the last transaction we pull has enough
statements to put our count at 110, we'll still take it, but then we're
done).
Here is our function:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION dbmirror.get_pending()
RETURNS SETOF dbmirror.pending_statement AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
count INT4;
transaction RECORD;
statement dbmirror.pending_statement;
BEGIN
count := 0;

Re: [PERFORM] How can I speed up this function?
Hi Keith, Unfortunately, we must have those sorts. The statements within a transaction must be executed on the slave in the same order as they were on the master, and similarly, transactions must also go in the same order. As for aliasing the tables, that is just a remnant from previous versions of the code. Thanks David Keith Worthington wrote: I'm still a newbie and it may not affect performance but why are you aliasing the tables?

Merge the two select statements like this and try,
SELECT t.trans_id as ID,s.id, s.transaction_id, s.table_name, s.op, s.data
FROM pending_trans AS t join dbmirror.pending_statement AS s
on (s.transaction_id=t.id)
