Hi there,
I've recently been involved in migrating our old system to SQL Server and
then PostgreSQL. Everything has been working fine so far but now after
executing our tests on Postgres, we saw a very slow running query on a
large table in our database.
I have tried asking on other platforms but no one has been able to give me
a satisfying answer.
*Postgres Version : *PostgreSQL 12.2, compiled by Visual C++ build 1914,
64-bit
No notable errors in the Server log and the Postgres Server itself.
The table structure :
CREATE TABLE logtable
(
key character varying(20) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
id integer,
column3 integer,

CONSTRAINT pkey PRIMARY KEY (key)
USING INDEX TABLESPACE tablespace
)
TABLESPACE tablespace;
ALTER TABLE schema.logtable
OWNER to user;
CREATE INDEX idx_timestampcol
ON schema.logtable USING btree
( timestampcol ASC NULLS LAST )
TABLESPACE tablespace ;
CREATE INDEX idx_test2
ON schema.logtable USING btree
( entrytype ASC NULLS LAST)
TABLESPACE tablespace
WHERE archivestatus <= 1;
CREATE INDEX idx_arcstatus
ON schema.logtable USING btree
( archivestatus ASC NULLS LAST)
TABLESPACE tablespace;
CREATE INDEX idx_entrytype
ON schema.logtable USING btree
( entrytype ASC NULLS LAST)
TABLESPACE tablespace ;
The table contains 14.000.000 entries and has about 3.3 GB of data:
No triggers, inserts per day, probably 5-20 K per day.
SELECT relname, relpages, reltuples, relallvisible, relkind, relnatts,
relhassubclass, reloptions, pg_table_size(oid) FROM pg_class WHERE
relname='logtable';
relname
|relpages|reltuples|relallvisible|relkind|relnatts|relhassubclass|reloptions|pg_table_size|
------------------|--------|---------|-------------|-------|--------|--------------|----------|-------------|
logtable | 405988| 14091424| 405907|r | 54|false
|NULL | 3326803968|
The slow running query:
SELECT column1,..., column54 where ((entrytype = 4000 or entrytype = 4001
or entrytype = 4002) and (archivestatus <= 1)) order by timestampcol desc;
This query runs in about 45-60 seconds.
The same query runs in about 289 ms Oracle and 423 ms in SQL-Server.
Now I understand that actually loading all results would take a while.
(about 520K or so rows)
But that shouldn't be exactly what happens right? There should be a
resultset iterator which can retrieve all data but doesn't from the get go.
With the help of some people in the slack and so thread, I've found a
configuration parameter which helps performance :
set random_page_cost = 1;
This improved performance from 45-60 s to 15-35 s. (since we are using
ssd's)
Still not acceptable but definitely an improvement.
Some maybe relevant system parameters:
effective_cache_size 4GB
maintenance_work_mem 1GB
shared_buffers 2GB
work_mem 1GB
Currently I'm accessing the data through DbBeaver (JDBC -
postgresql-42.2.5.jar) and our JAVA application (JDBC -
postgresql-42.2.19.jar). Both use the defaultRowFetchSize=5000 to not load
everything into memory and limit the results.

As mentioned before, oracle does this much faster.

Is there much I can analyze, any information you might need to further
analyze this?
