Delete,insert,update与undo的关系

What is relationship (delete,insert,update) and undo?

during an insert - we have togenerate undo equivalent to "delete+rowid" 
during an update - we have togenerate undo equivalent to "update this rowid to have thesebefore image values" (undo = rowid + column before images) 
during a delete - we have togenerate undo equivalent to "insert at this rowid thesevalues" 
so,considering an unindexed table - IN GENERAL, a delete and update will generatethe most and an insert the least. IN GENERAL this is true (but not always). 
INGENERAL=>delete>update>insert

if you add indexes - everything canchange. the insert might generate gobs of undo for the index maintenance -the update might not update any indexed columns and hence only generate undofor the table - and the delete might have to maintain all of the indexesgenerating tons of undo again. 
so, it depends on the nature of the data,what you are inserting/updating/deleting.. 
same for redo. It depends on what is modified... 

Add indexes

IN GENERAL=>delete>insert>update

 

 

总结：

通常情况下

Undo 产生量排序：delete>update>insert

Undo(table of indexes)产生量排序：delete>insert>update

一些手机发送业务上，往往会使用update去更新业务的状态！
