Weird behavior of INSERT QUERY

От

Дата:
Hi Listers,

DB : postgres 14.

We are experiencing weird performance issue of one simple insert statement taking several minutes to insert data. The application calls insert statement via stored procedure show mentioned below.

The select query in the insert returns about 499 rows. However, this insert statement when executed from application user i.e. schema1_u takes close to  8 minutes. When the same insert statement gets executed as  postgres user it takes less than 280 ms. Both the executions use the same execution plan with only difference that when schema1_u executes the SQL, we observe "Trigger for constraint fk_con_tablea: time=426499.314 calls=499" taking more time. Both the parent and child tables are not big in size. There is no table bloat etc for both of these tables. Below are the details.
Is there any way we can identify why as postgres user the insert statement works fine and why not with application user schema1_u?

Stored Procedure:
====================

Forgot to mention. If I cancel the long running insert statement from schema1_u user query before completion, I see the below. Not sure if this will help but just thought to mention it.

CONTEXT:  SQL statement "SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "schema1"."table_b" x WHERE "id" OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) $1 FOR KEY SHARE OF x"

Are you sure that in both case the exact same tables are accessed?  It looks
like schema1_u is checking the rows for a way bigger table.  The usual answer
is to create a proper index for the table referenced by the FK.

Hi Julien,

Yes both in both the cases the same tables are accessed. Yes we tried indexing as well, but we have the same behaviour.

Do you reproduce the problem if you connect and execute that query
manually with the schema1_u user?  Is the query always fast when
running as postgres and always slow when running as schema1_u?  Is
there any special configuration for that user? \drds can tell you
that, but those should get logged with the rest of the non default
parameters already displayed in the explain plan.

If you can reproduce easily, you should be able to get the execution
plans of the underlying FK queries using auto_explain and
auto_explain.log_nested_statements = true.  It might show you the
problem.

So you need to find out what's happening in the trigger.  Perhaps
auto_explain with auto_explain.log_nested_statements enabled
would give some insight.

I suspect there might be a permissions problem causing schema1_u
to not be allowed to "see" the statistics for table_b, resulting
in a bad plan choice for the FK enforcement query; but that's
just a guess.

So you need to find out what's happening in the trigger.  Perhaps
auto_explain with auto_explain.log_nested_statements enabled
would give some insight.

I suspect there might be a permissions problem causing schema1_u
to not be allowed to "see" the statistics for table_b, resulting
in a bad plan choice for the FK enforcement query; but that's
just a guess.

                        regards, tom lane


Hi Tom,

We did enable auto_explain and auto_explain.log_nested_statements and apart from the insert statement we couldn't find any other SQL's causing that was taking more time.

Hi Listers,

DB : postgres 14.

We are experiencing weird performance issue of one simple insert statement taking several minutes to insert data. The application calls insert statement via stored procedure show mentioned below.

The select query in the insert returns about 499 rows. However, this insert statement when executed from application user i.e. schema1_u takes close to  8 minutes. When the same insert statement gets executed as  postgres user it takes less than 280 ms. Both the executions use the same execution plan with only difference that when schema1_u executes the SQL, we observe "Trigger for constraint fk_con_tablea: time=426499.314 calls=499" taking more time. Both the parent and child tables are not big in size. There is no table bloat etc for both of these tables. Below are the details.
Is there any way we can identify why as postgres user the insert statement works fine and why not with application user schema1_u?

Stored Procedure:
====================

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION schema1.ins_staging_fn(parfileid double precision, parcreatedby text)
 RETURNS void
 LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
    BEGIN
        insert  into table_a
          (
            ROWVERSION,
            CREATED,
            ISDELETED,
            ISIGNORED,
            IMPORTEDACCOUNTCODE,
            IMPORTEDUNITCODE,
            BEGINNINGBALANCE,
            ENDINGBALANCE,
            CREATEDBY,
            FILEID
          )
          select  to_timestamp(To_char(clock_timestamp(),'DD-MON-YY HH.MI.SS.FF4 AM'),'DD-MON-YY HH.MI.SS.FF4 AM'),
                  to_timestamp(To_char(clock_timestamp() at time zone 'utc', 'DD-MON-YY HH.MI.SS.MS AM'),'DD-MON-YY HH.MI.SS.FF4 AM'),
                  false,
                  false,
                  IMPORTEDACCOUNTCODE,
                  IMPORTEDUNITCODE,
                  BEGINNINGBALANCE,
                  ENDINGBALANCE,
                  parCreatedBy,
                  FILEID
          from STAGING_table_a
          where FILEID = parFileId;
       
    END;
    $function$
;
Can you show what type is FILEID?

Can there be type mismatch?

I think you are in trouble when comparing float8 (double precision) with numeric.
This small example shows problems.

Postgres version 14.2:
SELECT '8217316934885843456'::float8 = '8217316934885843456'::float8::bigint::float8, '8217316934885843456'::float8 = '8217316934885843456'::float8::numeric::float8;
 ?column? | ?column?
----------+----------
 t        | f
(1 row)

I suggest a study to switch to bigint.

I think you are in trouble when comparing float8 (double precision) with numeric.
This small example shows problems.

Postgres version 14.2:
SELECT '8217316934885843456'::float8 = '8217316934885843456'::float8::bigint::float8, '8217316934885843456'::float8 = '8217316934885843456'::float8::numeric::float8;
 ?column? | ?column?
----------+----------
 t        | f
(1 row)

I suggest a study to switch to bigint.

Hi Ranier / All,

Any idea if that is the case why as postgres user the query just works fine? Also I enabled all parameters for auto_explain and couldn't find any SQL that is taking more time. At last it just showed the insert statement and its execution plan which I have mentioned in the beginning of the email stating "trigger for constraints " taking more time.

One thing that was observed is that, when as postgres user I ran the query, it was not taking rowshare locks on the parent table (table_b) whereas as when I ran the same SQL as schema1_u user,  I saw the Row Share locks acquired on the parent table and its FK's and indexes etc. Not sure if I am missing something here.
