Hello,
I have a table called BUILDREQUESTS which I want to select from,
depending on the project ID of each record. The Project ID field is
indexed.
(A) This query runs almost instantly:
SELECT BR.REQID FROM BUILDREQUESTS BR WHERE BR.PROJECTID IN
(1,62,56,3,4,2, 15,9,11,17,18,1 9,22,24,26,63,2 8,29,30,32,40,5 2,68,48,49,37,5 4,39,73,43,44,7 7,45,57,55,65,6 6,74,103,78,82, 84,85,86,88,90, 91,92,93,99,95, 96,97,98,100,10 4,105,106,107,1 08,109,110,111) ;
(B) This query takes about 1.7 seconds:
SELECT BR.REQUESTEDBY FROM BUILDREQUESTS BR WHERE BR.PROJECTID IN
(1,62,56,3,4,2, 15,9,11,17,18,1 9,22,24,26,63,2 8,29,30,32,40,5 2,68,48,49,37,5 4,39,73,43,44,7 7,45,57,55,65,6 6,74,103,78,82, 84,85,86,88,90, 91,92,93,99,95, 96,97,98,100,10 4,105,106,107,1 08,109,110,111) ;
Note that the only difference between Query A and Query B is the field
we are selecting. REQID and REQUESTEDBY by are both Int(11) fields.
The only difference between the two fields is that REQID is indexed.
Neither of these fields are in the WHERE clause and there is no sort
order, so what gives? Why the slowdown? Ideally, I want to select
several more fields, but this is my test case to try and optimize first.
The machine I am running on is fast, single CPU, 512M RAM. MySql 3.23,
default install via Red Hat 8. I have tried tweaking several buffer
settings in my.cnf to no avail.
What am I missing!?
Thanks,
John

The only thing I can think of so far, and I'm not sure what to do about
it, is that the table is "Dynamic", not "Fixed". Perhaps jumping around
from record to record is causing the slowdown, as there are multiple
text columns in the table. The select on reqid is fast, because it is
an indexed field and there is no need to go to the table data to get the
value. Problem is that I cannot index every field I want to display.

Hi there,
I'm sort of new with doing much record manipulation with queries. Up
till now I've been programming VBA and doing record looping to get my
results. This works fine but tends to get very, very slow as the
number of records grows - somewhere in the number of 5,000,000. I
imagine queries are much faster but am not quite sure if queries will
do the trick.

I'm having a problem writing a query that will retrieve all the

retrieve all the records for a specific date if I hard-code the date
into the query, but not if I want to prompt the user. Has anybody
else experienced this? Does anybody have any suggestions?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
