Обсуждение: Performance in subconsult

Hello there!

I have the next query:

psql# select * from table1 t1 where not exists (select * from table2 t2
where t2.id = t1.id);

The execution of this uses more than 90% of my CPU performance and the
answer is slow...

Is there any wrong on my query?

Thanks for the posible answers.

Hi,

do you use any indexes on these tables (especially table2.t2) ?

How large are these tables ?

Cheers

Hello again...

Not, I don't use indexes in the tables, table1 has 1748 records, and
table2 has 41101.

Regards!

Sonny

Hi Sonia,

Have you tuned the PostgreSQL memory configuration, or is it still at
it's defaults?

The default memory allocation is really, really, really small, and is
only that way just in case someone loads PostgreSQL onto a server with
almost no memory (like 32MB or something).

The memory configuration is controlled by the postgresql.conf
configuration file, and I think you'll find Bruce Momjian's guide on
PostgreSQL tuning to be very useful :

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
