当表有其他字段时,Mysql 不使用 DATETIME 索引

我需要一些帮助来解决这个问题。我试图让 Mysql 在 DATETIME 字段上使用索引。

如果表中有其他(未使用的)字段,Mysql 决定不使用索引。考虑下面的两种情况:

一个包含 2 个字段的简单表格可以正常工作

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS datetime_index_test;
CREATE TABLE  datetime_index_test (
id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
created DATETIME NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY (id) ,
INDEX (created)
) ENGINE = InnoDB ;

INSERT INTO datetime_index_test (created) VALUES
('2011-04-06 00:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 01:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 02:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 03:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 04:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 05:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 06:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 00:00:00');

EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM datetime_index_test
WHERE created <= '2011-04-06 04:00:00';

+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
| id | select_type | table               | type  | possible_keys | key     | key_len | ref  | rows | Extra                    |
+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | datetime_index_test | range | created       | created | 4       | NULL |    4 | Using where; Using index |
+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+

一个包含 3 个字段的简单表格无法正常工作

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS datetime_index_test;
CREATE TABLE  datetime_index_test (
id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
created DATETIME NOT NULL ,
user int(10) unsigned DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY (id) ,
INDEX (created)
) ENGINE = InnoDB ;

INSERT INTO datetime_index_test (created) VALUES
('2011-04-06 00:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 01:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 02:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 03:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 04:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 05:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 06:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 00:00:00');

EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM datetime_index_test
WHERE created <= '2011-04-06 04:00:00';

+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table               | type | possible_keys | key  | key_len | ref  | rows | Extra       |
+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | datetime_index_test | ALL  | created       | NULL | NULL    | NULL |    8 | Using where |
+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+

最后,我的问题; 谁能向我解释一下为什么Mysql决定不使用索引?

I need some help figuring this out. I'm trying to get Mysql to use an index on a DATETIME field.

Mysql decides not to use the index if there's other (not used) fields in the table. Consider the two cases below:

A simple table with 2 fields works fine:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS datetime_index_test;
CREATE TABLE  datetime_index_test (
id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
created DATETIME NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY (id) ,
INDEX (created)
) ENGINE = InnoDB ;

INSERT INTO datetime_index_test (created) VALUES
('2011-04-06 00:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 01:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 02:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 03:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 04:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 05:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 06:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 00:00:00');

EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM datetime_index_test
WHERE created <= '2011-04-06 04:00:00';

+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
| id | select_type | table               | type  | possible_keys | key     | key_len | ref  | rows | Extra                    |
+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | datetime_index_test | range | created       | created | 4       | NULL |    4 | Using where; Using index |
+----+-------------+---------------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+

A simple table with 3 fields, does not works fine:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS datetime_index_test;
CREATE TABLE  datetime_index_test (
id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
created DATETIME NOT NULL ,
user int(10) unsigned DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY (id) ,
INDEX (created)
) ENGINE = InnoDB ;

INSERT INTO datetime_index_test (created) VALUES
('2011-04-06 00:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 01:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 02:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 03:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 04:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 05:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 06:00:00'),
('2011-04-06 00:00:00');

EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM datetime_index_test
WHERE created <= '2011-04-06 04:00:00';

+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table               | type | possible_keys | key  | key_len | ref  | rows | Extra       |
+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | datetime_index_test | ALL  | created       | NULL | NULL    | NULL |    8 | Using where |
+----+-------------+---------------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+

Finally, my question; Can anyone explain to me why Mysql decides not to use the index?

这是由于我所说的基于关键群体(元组基数)的 5% 规则。

如果您对存在不平衡基数的表建立索引,MySQL 查询优化器将始终选择阻力最小的路径。

示例:如果表有性别列,则基数为两个,M 和 F。

您对这样的性别列建立什么索引???你本质上会得到两个巨大的链表。

如果将一百万行加载到包含性别列的表中,则可能会得到 50% M 和 50% F。

如果关键组合(我所说的关键群体)的基数更多,则在查询优化期间索引将变得毫无用处。超过表总数的 5%。

现在,就您的示例而言,为什么有两个不同的 EXPLAIN 计划???我的猜测是 MySQL 查询优化器和 InnoDB 作为一个标签组。

在第一个 CREATE TABLE 中,表和索引虽然很小,但大小大致相同,因此它决定通过执行索引扫描而不是全表扫描来支持索引。请记住,非唯一索引在其索引条目中携带每行的内部主键 (RowID),从而使索引几乎与表本身的大小相同。

在第二个 CREATE TABLE 中,由于引入了另一列 user,您现在使查询优化器看到完全不同的场景:表现在大于索引。因此,查询优化器在解释如何使用可用索引方面变得更加严格。这就是我之前提到的5%规则。该规则惨遭失败,查询优化器决定支持全表扫描。

This is due to what I call the 5% rule based on key population (tuple cardinality).

If you index a table where lopsided cardinality exist, the MySQL Query Optimizer wiill always choose the path of least resistance.

EXAMPLE : If a table has a gender column, cardinality is two, M and F.

What is you index such a gender column ??? You essentailly get two giant linked lists.

If you load one million rows into a table with a gender column, you may get 50% M and 50% F.

An index is rendered useless during query optimization if the cardinality of a key combo (key population as I phrased it) is more than 5% of the total table count.

Now, with regard to your example, why the two different EXPLAIN plans ??? My guess is the MySQL Query Optimizer and InnoDB as a tag team.

In the first CREATE TABLE, the table and the indexes are about the same size though small, so it decided in favor of the index by doing an index scan not a full table scan. Keep in mind that non-unique indexes carry around each row's internal primary key (RowID) in its index entries, thus making the indexes almost the same size as the table itself.

In the second CREATE TABLE, because of the introduction of another column, user, you now make the Query Optimizer see a completely different scenario: The table is now bigger that the indexes. Hence, the Query Optimizer became more strict in its interpretation of how to use available indexes. It went to the 5% rule I mentioned before. That rule failed miserably and the Query Optimizer decided in favor of a full table scan.
