Top 1000 SQL Performance Tips

[@more@]

Specific Query Performance Tips (see also database design tips for tips on indexes):
1. Use EXPLAIN to profile the query execution plan
使用explain 查看查询执行的计划
2. Use Slow Query Log (always have it on!)
使用Slow Query Log(慢查询日志)
3. Don't use DISTINCT when you have or could use GROUP BY
当你能或正在使用GROUP BY 时不要使用 DISTINCT
4. Insert performance
插入性能
1. Batch INSERT and REPLACE
使用批量插入
2. Use LOAD DATA instead of INSERT
用LOAD DATA 代替insert
5. LIMIT m,n may not be as fast as it sounds
LIMIT m,n 可能并没有听起来那么的快
6. Don't use ORDER BY RAND() if you have > ~2K records
如果你的记录大于2000条,请不要使用 ORDER BY RAND()
7. Use SQL_NO_CACHE when you are SELECTing frequently updated data or large sets of data
当你在查询经常更新和大数据集的数据时,使用SQL_NO_CACHE
8. Avoid wildcards at the start of LIKE queries
避免在LIke 查询的变量的头字符中使用通配符
9. Avoid correlated subqueries and in select and where clause (try to avoid in)
避免相关子查询..
10. No calculated comparisons -- isolate indexed columns
不使用计算后的比较------可使索引列仍然有效
11. ORDER BY and LIMIT work best with equalities and covered indexes
ORDER BY 和 LIMIT 在有索引和等于条件时效率更高
12. Separate text/blobs from metadata, don't put text/blobs in results if you don't need them
把text/blobs 这两种数据分开,如果不需要的话,不要包含在结果中
13. Derived tables (subqueries in the FROM clause) can be useful for retrieving BLOBs without sorting them. (Self-join can speed up a query if 1st part finds the IDs and uses then to fetch the rest)

14. ALTER TABLE...ORDER BY can take data sorted chronologically and re-order it by a different field -- this can make queries on that field run faster (maybe this goes in indexing?)
15. Know when to split a complex query and join smaller ones
知道什么时候分割复杂查询和合并简单查询
16. Delete small amounts at a time if you can
17. Make similar queries consistent so cache is used
把相似的查询改为一摸一样的查询,这样可以使用cache
18. Have good SQL query standards
19. Don't use deprecated features
不要使用未得认可得特性
20. Turning OR on multiple index fields (<5.0) into UNION may speed things up (with LIMIT), after 5.0 the index_merge should pick stuff up.
在多索引列,把OR改为UNION 可使速度加快(在5.0版本以下),
21. Don't use COUNT * on Innodb tables for every search, do it a few times and/or summary tables, or if you need it for the total # of rows, use SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS and SELECT FOUND_ROWS()
不要在每一个搜索中使用COUNT *(在Innodb 表中),可以使用SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS 和 SELECT FOUND_ROWS()代替他们
22. Use INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY update (INSERT IGNORE) to avoid having to SELECT
23. use groupwise maximum instead of subqueries

Scaling Performance Tips:
1. Use benchmarking
2. isolate workloads don't let administrative work interfere with customer performance. (ie backups)
3. Debugging sucks, testing rocks!
4. As your data grows, indexing may change (cardinality and selectivity change). Structuring may want to change. Make your schema as modular as your code. Make your code able to scale. Plan and embrace change, and get developers to do the same.
Network Performance Tips:
1. Minimize traffic by fetching only what you need.
通过查询你需要得数据来减少通信流量
1. Paging/chunked data retrieval to limit
2. Don't use SELECT *
不要使用 SELECT *
3. Be wary of lots of small quick queries if a longer query can be more efficient
2. Use multi_query if appropriate to reduce round-trips
OS Performance Tips:
1. Use proper data partitions
1. For Cluster. Start thinking about Cluster *before* you need them
2. Keep the database host as clean as possible. Do you really need a windowing system on that server?
3. Utilize the strengths of the OS
4. pare down cron scripts
5. create a test environment
6. source control schema and config files
7. for LVM innodb backups, restore to a different instance of MySQL so Innodb can roll forward
8. partition appropriately
9. partition your database when you have real data -- do not assume you know your dataset until you have real data
MySQL Server Overall Tips:
1. innodb_flush_commit=0 can help slave lag
2. Optimize for data types, use consistent data types. Use PROCEDURE ANALYSE() to help determine the smallest data type for your needs.
3. use optimistic locking, not pessimistic locking. try to use shared lock, not exclusive lock. share mode vs. FOR UPDATE
4. if you can, compress text/blobs
5. compress static data
6. don't back up static data as often
7. enable and increase the query and buffer caches if appropriate
8. config params -- http://docs.cellblue.nl/2007/03/17/easy-mysql-performance-tweaks/ is a good reference
9. Config variables & tips:
1. use one of the supplied config files
2. key_buffer, unix cache (leave some RAM free), per-connection variables, innodb memory variables
3. be aware of global vs. per-connection variables
4. check SHOW STATUS and SHOW VARIABLES (GLOBAL|SESSION in 5.0 and up)
5. be aware of swapping esp. with Linux, "swappiness" (bypass OS filecache for innodb data files, innodb_flush_method=O_DIRECT if possible (this is also OS specific))
6. defragment tables, rebuild indexes, do table maintenance
7. If you use innodb_flush_txn_commit=1, use a battery-backed hardware cache write controller
8. more RAM is good so faster disk speed
9. use 64-bit architectures
10. --skip-name-resolve
11. increase myisam_sort_buffer_size to optimize large inserts (this is a per-connection variable)
12. look up memory tuning parameter for on-insert caching
13. increase temp table size in a data warehousing environment (default is 32Mb) so it doesn't write to disk (also constrained by max_heap_table_size, default 16Mb)
14. Run in SQL_MODE=STRICT to help identify warnings
15. /tmp dir on battery-backed write cache
16. consider battery-backed RAM for innodb logfiles
17. use --safe-updates for client
18. Redundant data is redundant
Storage Engine Performance Tips:
1. InnoDB ALWAYS keeps the primary key as part of each index, so do not make the primary key very large
2. Utilize different storage engines on master/slave ie, if you need fulltext indexing on a table.
3. BLACKHOLE engine and replication is much faster than FEDERATED tables for things like logs.
4. Know your storage engines and what performs best for your needs, know that different ones exist.
1. ie, use MERGE tables ARCHIVE tables for logs
2. Archive old data -- don't be a pack-rat! 2 common engines for this are ARCHIVE tables and MERGE tables
5. use row-level instead of table-level locking for OLTP workloads
6. try out a few schemas and storage engines in your test environment before picking one.
Database Design Performance Tips:
1. Design sane query schemas. don't be afraid of table joins, often they are faster than denormalization
2. Don't use boolean flags
3. Use Indexes
4. Don't Index Everything
5. Do not duplicate indexes
6. Do not use large columns in indexes if the ratio of SELECTs:INSERTs is low.
7. be careful of redundant columns in an index or across indexes
8. Use a clever key and ORDER BY instead of MAX
9. Normalize first, and denormalize where appropriate.
10. Databases are not spreadsheets, even though Access really really looks like one. Then again, Access isn't a real database
11. use INET_ATON and INET_NTOA for IP addresses, not char or varchar
12. make it a habit to REVERSE() email addresses, so you can easily search domains (this will help avoid wildcards at the start of LIKE queries if you want to find everyone whose e-mail is in a certain domain)
13. A NULL data type can take more room to store than NOT NULL
14. Choose appropriate character sets & collations -- UTF16 will store each character in 2 bytes, whether it needs it or not, latin1 is faster than UTF8.
15. Use Triggers wisely
16. use min_rows and max_rows to specify approximate data size so space can be pre-allocated and reference points can be calculated.
17. Use HASH indexing for indexing across columns with similar data prefixes
18. Use myisam_pack_keys for int data
19. be able to change your schema without ruining functionality of your code
20. segregate tables/databases that benefit from different configuration variables
Other:
1. Hire a MySQL (tm) Certified DBA
2. Know that there are many consulting companies out there that can help, as well as MySQL's Professional Services.
3. Read and post to MySQL Planet at http://www.mysqlplanet.org
4. Attend the yearly MySQL Conference and Expo or other conferences with MySQL tracks (link to the conference here)
5. Support your local User Group (link to forge page w/user groups here)
