Обсуждение: Bad prepare performance
Hello,
I'm sorry if this has been discussed before, I couldn't find a discussion about
this problem.
I've done the same query on a 8.2.5 database. The first one is prepared first
and the other is executed directly.
I understand why the there is such a great difference between the two ways of
executing the query (postgres has no way of knowing that $1 will be quite big
and that the result is not too big).
I could just avoid using prepare statements, but this is done automatically with
Perl's DBD::Pg. I know how to avoid using prepare statements (avoid having
placeholders in the statement), but that is not the prettiest of work arounds.
Is there any planner hints I can use or anything happened or happening with 8.3
or later that I can use?
Thank you in advance and the following is the EXPLAIN ANALYZE for the queries.
Best regards
Martin Kjeldsen

Did you saw this option :
$sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT id FROM mytable WHERE val = ?",
{ pg_server_prepare => 0 });
Then, *this* query will not be prepared by the server.

This works very well. Thanks!
Still I regard this as a work around and the optimal solution would be to
allow the prepare statement to be prepared with an max(guid) is close to $1
hint or something like that.
I heard something about delayed prepare, where the prepared statements is
prepared on first use, this would solve my problem. Is this something being
work on right now?
