Description
as a separate issue:
Motivated by CSC#7897, I've tried to see how much space can ANALYZE use. (So far my understanding was that max. temp dir usage would be rougly equal to size of the table w/o indexes).
Let's try this:
create table ten(a int);
|
insert into ten values (0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9);
|
|
create table one_k(a int);
|
insert into one_k select A.a + B.a* 10 + C.a * 100 from ten A, ten B, ten C;
|
|
create table t1 (pk int primary key, col1 varchar(100)) charset=utf8;
|
insert into t1 select A.a+B.a*1000, concat('val-', A.a+B.a*1000) from one_k A, one_k B;
|
The table has 1M rows. Rows in the VARCHAR(100) column occupy less than
300 bytes (which is typical).
The table on disk:
-rw-rw---- 1 psergey psergey 44M Aug 1 23:09 t1.ibd
|
Now,
analyze table t1 persistent for all;
|
Breakpoint 4, unique_write_to_file_with_count (key=0x7ffebf2ce0a0 "\005", count=1, unique=0x7ffebf047ef0) at /home/psergey/dev2/10.0/sql/uniques.cc:53
|
(gdb) print key
|
$7 = (uchar *) 0x7ffebf2ce0a0 "\005"
|
(gdb)
|
(gdb) p unique->size
|
$8 = 302
|
It's writing 300 bytes, the unpacked length.
In total, we get:
Breakpoint 3, Unique::flush (this=0x7ffebf047ef0) at /home/psergey/dev2/10.0/sql/uniques.cc:379
|
$46 = 281,734,200
|
Breakpoint 3, Unique::flush (this=0x7ffebf047ef0) at /home/psergey/dev2/10.0/sql/uniques.cc:379
|
$48 = 297,386,100
|
...
|
Breakpoint 3, Unique::flush (this=0x7ffebf047a30) at /home/psergey/dev2/10.0/sql/uniques.cc:379
|
$47 = 4,194,304
|
300MBit = 286 M, i.e. ANALYZE may require much more space than is occupied by the table (44M)
