Обсуждение: DBI & DBD::Pg processor load
Linux 2.4.20 & PostgreSQL 7.2.3 & DBD::Pg 1.22. I was using PgSQL and PgSQL::Cursor with decent results. It is no longer supported, and was causing some strange problems. So, I switched to DBI with no problems to speak of. However, I immediately noticed a jump in processor usage. I primarily use $db->prepare($sql), $rs->execute, and $rs->fetchrow_arrayref. Are there any DBI experts out there with some advice to cut down on processor usage? CG __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.

Its interesting: the perl process doesn't soak up a huge amount of processor
time, but the postmaster connection created by DBI does. My queue table is
indexed, and my queue table is large (100,000 records). It is fully vacuumed
and analyized every night... I haven't turned on debugging yet, but that's my
next thing to try. I also might try archiving the table at 10000 rows, but
PgSQL::Cursor didn't have a problem with the 100,000 row queue...

Hi,
I don't know the internals of DBD::Pg, but I know some internals about the
underlying c-interface.
It looks like executing the select feches all 100,000 records at once. You
should use a cursor for that.
$dbh->do('BEGIN WORK'); # you need to start a transaction for a cursor
$dbh->do("DECLARE cursor1 CURSOR $mysql_get");
my $sth_fetch = $dbh->prepare('FETCH 100 FROM cursor1');
while(my $res = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($sth_fetch))
{
foreach (@$res)
{
my @row = @$_;
...do something with your data
}
}
$dbh->do('COMMIT'); # or ROLLBACK
By the way: You don't need to lock your table to update. Update does it for
you. And there is no need to start a transaction for a single
update-statement. And passing perl-variables as bind-values is better,
because DBI/DBD escapes your values automatically.
$dbh->do('UPDATE queue
set status=?
WHERE id = (SELECT min(id)
FROM queue
WHERE status=0', {}, $procid);
