今天在测试过程中遇到一问题, SQL该走Index的,没走. 加index hint也不行. 描述如下:
1. 建立测试表
create table t1
as
select object_id, object_name from dba_objects;
2. 在object_name列上建立b-tree index
create index idx_t1_name on t1(object_name);
3. 如果我是select object_name from t1, 按理说CBO应该会选择走Index scan. 但奇怪的是结果走的full table scan.
SQL> set autotrace trace exp
SQL> select object_name from t1;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 3617692013
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T1 | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. 使用index hint想强行走Index, 结果还是full table scan. 我就奇怪了. hint咋个不起做用呢? 郁闷.
SQL> select object_name from t1;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 3617692013
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T1 | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note
-----
- dynamic sampling used for this statement
4. 偶然看了下表结构
SQL> desc t1
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
OBJECT_ID NUMBER
OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2(128)
NULL列引起我的注意. OBJECT_NAME可以为null !! 而在oracle中单个列上建b-tree Index, null是不会存进Index的( 复合索引可以, 只要整个Index columns不为null ). 那就是说如果有些行的object_name是null, 那走Index取值不是会丢掉object_name为null的行. 那如果我让object_name not null 呢?
SQL> alter table t1 modify object_name not null;
Table altered.
SQL> desc t1
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
OBJECT_ID NUMBER
OBJECT_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(128)
再试一试
SQL> select object_name from t1;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 3617692013
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T1 | 50934 | 3282K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
结果还是full table scan : (
试试用hint
SQL> select object_name from t1;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 1352742509
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 50934 | 3282K| 264 (1)| 00:00:04 |
| 1 | INDEX FULL SCAN | IDX_T1_NAME | 50934 | 3282K| 264 (1)| 00:00:04 |
这回hint 起作用了. 这说明并不是Hint失效, 只是满足走Index的条件一开始没有具备. 看来null是个潜在杀手, 得小心防范.
现在强走index是ok了. 但, 是什么东西会影响CBO的判断不走Index呢? 想到统计信息可能会是原因之一, 于是查看了一下.
SQL> select index_name, LAST_ANALYZED from user_indexes;
INDEX_NAME LAST_ANALYZED
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------
IDX_T1_NAME 01-MAR-18
SQL> select table_name, LAST_ANALYZED from user_tables;
TABLE_NAME LAST_ANALYZED
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------
T1
看到刚建的表没有做过统计. 于是 go to analyze table, 结果如下:
SQL> exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats('TEST','T1');
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> select table_name, LAST_ANALYZED from user_tables;
TABLE_NAME LAST_ANALYZED
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------
T1 01-MAR-18
再来看看执行结果有没有变化:
SQL> select object_name from t1;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 222950081
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 49917 | 1218K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | INDEX FAST FULL SCAN| IDX_T1_NAME | 49917 | 1218K| 57 (2)| 00:00:01 |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
这下终于走Index这条路老 : ) 在Index 中, key value是排序存放的. Index Fast full scan 它是按照block的存储顺序来读取数据, 并可以一次I/O多块读取提高效率( 参数 readdb_file_multiblock_read_count), 但返回的值是没有排序的. 而
Index full scan会按照Key value顺序读取值, 返回排了序的结果. 所以, 做个order by会是走Index full scan.
SQL> select object_name from t1 order by object_name;
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Plan hash value: 1352742509
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 49917 | 1218K| 249 (1)| 00:00:03 |
| 1 | INDEX FULL SCAN | IDX_T1_NAME | 49917 | 1218K| 249 (1)| 00:00:03 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
对于定义为NULL的列，创建位图索引可走索引
