PostgreSQL_LATERAL JOINのパフォーマンス

Posted at

LATERAL JOIN のパフォーマンス

LATERAL JOIN のパフォーマンスを測定します

次の記事を勉強目的でトレースしてます
※古めの記事なのでpostgres のバージョンも古いです


DB 作成

createdb -U postgres sample
psql -U postgres -d sample

バージョン確認

sample=# select version();
                          version
------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 16.2, compiled by Visual C++ build 1937, 64-bit
(1 )

■ トップ N の取得

タグ別に最新の映画を取り出すケースを考えます

テーブル作成

CREATE TABLE tags (
  id serial PRIMARY KEY,
  name VARCHAR(255)
);

CREATE TABLE movies (
  id serial PRIMARY KEY,
  name VARCHAR(255),
  tag_id int NOT NULL,
  created_at timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(),
  FOREIGN KEY (tag_id) REFERENCES tags(id) ON UPDATE CASCADE
);

CREATE INDEX movies_tag_id_index ON movies (tag_id);

テストデータの挿入

-- Genres
INSERT INTO "tags"("name") VALUES('Action');
INSERT INTO "tags"("name") VALUES('Animation');
INSERT INTO "tags"("name") VALUES('Sci-Fi');

-- Movies
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('The Matrix', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Action'), '1999-05-21');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Tenet', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Action'), '2020-10-29');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Wonder Woman 1984', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Action'), '2020-12-25');

INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Toy Story', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Animation'), '1995-12-22');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Monsters Inc.', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Animation'), '2001-11-14');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Finding Nemo', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Animation'), '2003-07-4');

INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Arrival', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Sci-Fi'), '2016-10-24');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('Minority Report', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Sci-Fi'), '2002-08-02');
INSERT INTO "movies"("name", "tag_id", "created_at") VALUES('The Midnight Sky', (SELECT id FROM "tags" where "name" = 'Sci-Fi'), '2020-12-23');

ROW NUMBER を使う解決方法

LATERALを使わないケース
各タグごとに最新順でソートするクエリを動作確認します。
ランキングを得るために ROW_NUMBER を使用します。

sample=# SELECT
sample-#   tag_id,
sample-#   name,
sample-#   created_at,
sample-#   ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY tag_id ORDER BY tag_id, created_at DESC)
sample-# FROM movies;
 tag_id |       name        |     created_at      | row_number
--------+-------------------+---------------------+------------
      1 | Wonder Woman 1984 | 2020-12-25 00:00:00 |          1
      1 | Tenet             | 2020-10-29 00:00:00 |          2
      1 | The Matrix        | 1999-05-21 00:00:00 |          3
      2 | Finding Nemo      | 2003-07-04 00:00:00 |          1
      2 | Monsters Inc.     | 2001-11-14 00:00:00 |          2
      2 | Toy Story         | 1995-12-22 00:00:00 |          3
      3 | The Midnight Sky  | 2020-12-23 00:00:00 |          1
      3 | Arrival           | 2016-10-24 00:00:00 |          2
      3 | Minority Report   | 2002-08-02 00:00:00 |          3
(9 )

ランキングが不要なら下記クエリで OK

sample=# SELECT
sample-#   tag_id,
sample-#   name,
sample-#   created_at
sample-# FROM movies ORDER BY tag_id,created_at desc;
 tag_id |       name        |     created_at
--------+-------------------+---------------------
      1 | Wonder Woman 1984 | 2020-12-25 00:00:00
      1 | Tenet             | 2020-10-29 00:00:00
      1 | The Matrix        | 1999-05-21 00:00:00
      2 | Finding Nemo      | 2003-07-04 00:00:00
      2 | Monsters Inc.     | 2001-11-14 00:00:00
      2 | Toy Story         | 1995-12-22 00:00:00
      3 | The Midnight Sky  | 2020-12-23 00:00:00
      3 | Arrival           | 2016-10-24 00:00:00
      3 | Minority Report   | 2002-08-02 00:00:00
(9 )

今回はランキング 2 位までが必要なので、クエリをそのように書き換えます。

sample=# with movies_by_tags (tag_id, name, created_at, rank) as (
sample(#   SELECT
sample(#     tag_id,

      3 | Arrival           | 2016-10-24 00:00:00 |    2

LATERAL を使う解決方法

LATERAL 句でも同じ結果が得られます

sample=# SELECT *
sample-# FROM tags t
sample-# JOIN LATERAL (
sample(#   SELECT m.*
sample(#   FROM movies m
sample(#   WHERE m.tag_id = t.id
sample(#   ORDER BY m.created_at DESC
sample(#   FETCH FIRST 2 ROWS ONLY
sample(# ) e1 ON true;
 id |   name    | id |       name        | tag_id |     created_at
----+-----------+----+-------------------+--------+---------------------
  1 | Action    |  3 | Wonder Woman 1984 |      1 | 2020-12-25 00:00:00
  1 | Action    |  2 | Tenet             |      1 | 2020-10-29 00:00:00
  2 | Animation |  6 | Finding Nemo      |      2 | 2003-07-04 00:00:00

双方十分に早いクエリですが、元ブログとは異なり LATERAL ありの方が、僅かに遅くなりました。
データが少ないので、さらに増やして比較します。

300 万レコードでは LATERAL の方が速くなりました。
PostgreSQL の旧バージョンだとROW NUMBERを使ったクエリの実行計画ではIndex Scanは使用されていませんでしたが、PostgreSQL16 以降だと使用されるようになっており、パフォーマンスの差が縮まっています。
ただし、external mergeはディスク I/O が発生するため、テーブルサイズが増えれば増えるほどにROW NUMBERが相対的に遅くなるでしょう。

work_memの設定値を増やすことでディスク I/O は軽減できますが、基本的にROW NUMBERを使うクエリはスケールしないので使わない方が良いでしょう

  • 元ブログ計測値(2021 年時点で使用できる PostgreSQL バージョン)
9 レコード 300 万レコード
ROW NUMBER 0.35 秒 8.5 秒
LATERAL 0.22 秒 0.9 約
  • 自分の実行環境(PostgreSQL 16)
    ※バージョン以外にマシンスペックや設定も恐らく異なる
9 レコード 300 万レコード
ROW NUMBER 0.33 秒 2.3 秒
LATERAL 0.36 秒 0.7 約

とあるテーブルの値を元にビッグテーブルの集計を行う場合は、
LATERALはスケールするので便利ですね。

■ ディスク I/O の確認(消化不良)

試しに、統計情報を確認します
統計情報をリセット後、各クエリ実行後の統計情報を確認します

※共有バッファやディスクキャッシュが使われないように念のため、OS 再起動して測定。
