今天在网上看到一道SQL优化题目，关于select max(id),min(id) from  xxx；的优化，自己做了下实验：

1.创建测试表:

   create table max(id number,name varchar2(20));

 2.插入100000数据：

declare
   i number;
begin
  for i in 1..100000
  loop
     insert into max values(i,'jdfjdkfkd');
  end loop;
end;
/

3.首先查看select max(id) from max的执行计划：

SQL> set autotrace traceonly
SQL>
SQL>
SQL>
SQL>
SQL> select max(id) from test.max;

          0  sorts (disk)

3.查看select max(id),min(id) from max的执行计划

SQL> select max(id),min(id) from test.max;

|   2 |   TABLE ACCESS FULL| MAX  | 98866 |  1255K|    84   (2)| 00:00:02 |

          0  sorts (disk)
          1  rows processed

发现执行计划发生变化，使用了index full scan，因为要同时查找max,min值，无法通过index full scan (min/max)来获取了，那么想到的优化方法是想办法让查询使用index full scan(min/max)

SQL> select a.max,b.min from
  2  (select max(id) max from test.max) a,(select min(id)  min from test.max) b;

|   5 |   VIEW                       |            |     1 |    13 |    84   (2)| 00:00:02 |
|   6 |    SORT AGGREGATE            |            |     1 |    13 |            |          |
|   7 |     INDEX FULL SCAN (MIN/MAX)| IDX_MAX_ID | 98866 |  1255K|            |          |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          4  consistent gets
          0  physical reads

这样使用了两次index full scan(min/max),逻辑读下降到4。

  不知道是不是还有更好的优化方法，目前能想到的就这个了，如果有更好的，希望大家指点。
