How to Speed This Up?1. Query Solutions2. Schema Solutions3. Configuration Solutions4. Parallel Execution Solutions

Example TableCREATE TABLE TestTable (id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,intCol INT UNSIGNED DEFAULT NULL,stringCol VARCHAR(100) DEFAULT NULL,textCol TEXT

) ENGINE=InnoDB;

Let’s load 1 million rows!

Best Case PerformanceRunning a test script to loop over 1 million rows, without inserting to a database.

$ php test-bulk-insert.php --total-rows 1000000 --noop

This should have a speed that is the upper bound for any subsequent test.

Time: 2 seconds (00:00:02)1000000 rows = 432435.24 rows/sec1000000 stmt = 432435.24 stmt/sec1000000 txns = 432435.24 txns/sec1000000 conn = 432435.24 conn/sec

Worst Case PerformanceINSERT INTO TestTable (id, intCol, stringCol, textCol) VALUES(?, ?, ?, ?);

Run a test script that executes one INSERT, commits, reconnects.

$ php test-bulk-insert.php --total-rows 10000

Query Solutions

Inserting One Row at a TimeINSERT INTO TestTable (id, intCol, stringCol, textCol) VALUES(?, ?, ?, ?);

Run a test script that executes one INSERT, commits using a single connection.

$ php test-bulk-insert.php --total-rows 1000000 \--txns-per-conn 1000000

Time: 527 seconds (00:08:47)1000000 rows = 1894.67 rows/sec1000000 stmt = 1894.67 stmt/sec1000000 txns = 1894.67 txns/sec

1 conn = 0.01 conn/sec

TransactionsBEGIN TRANSACTION;

INSERT INTO TestTable …






COMMIT;

Q: How many statements can you do in one transaction?

A: In theory this is constrained by undo log segments, but it's a lot.

Load Data in File: Resultsmysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'TestTable.csv' INTO TABLE TestTable;

Flat-file data load in a single transaction.

Works with replication.

What about Load JSON in File?Sorry, the hypothetical LOAD JSON INFILE is not supported by MySQL yet.

😭But it has been proposed as a feature request:

https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=79209

Go vote for it!

Or better yet, implement it and contribute a patch!

Schema Solutions

IndexesHow much overhead for one index? Two indexes?

1. mysql> ALTER TABLE TestTable ADD INDEX (intCol);

2. mysql> ALTER TABLE TextTable ADD INDEX (stringCol);

Index DeferralWhat if we insert with no indexes, and build indexes at the end?§ Thi is what Percona’s mysqldump --innodb-optimize-keys does.§ Load time is like when you have no indexes:

Then create indexes after data load. This reduces the effective rate of rows/second:

mysql> ALTER TABLE TestTable ADD INDEX (intCol);Query OK, 0 rows affected (7.02 sec)

mysql> ALTER TABLE TestTable ADD INDEX (stringCol);Query OK, 0 rows affected (8.54 sec)


Time: 63 + 7 + 8.5 seconds (00:01:35)1000000 rows = 12738.85 rows/sec

effective data load rate

TriggersHow much overhead for a trigger?

mysql> CREATE TRIGGER TestTriggerBEFORE INSERT ON TestTableFOR EACH ROW

SET NEW.stringCol = UPPER(NEW.stringCol);

This is a very simple trigger. If you have more complex code, like subordinate INSERT statements, the cost will be higher.

Triggers: Results$ php test-bulk-insert.php --total-rows 1000000 \--rows-per-stmt 100 --stmts-per-txn 100 --txns-per-conn 100 \--trigger

Parallel Execution Solutions

Parallel ImportLike LOAD DATA INFILE but supports multi-threaded import:

$ mysqlimport --local --use-threads 4 \dbname table1 table2 table3 table4

Runs a fixed number of threads, imports one table per thread.

If an import finishes and there are more tables, first available thread does it.

why are you still doing this?

Want to Try The Tests Yourself?The test-bulk-insert.php script is available here:

https://github.com/billkarwin/bk-tools

One Last Thing…What Was Our Solution?We cheated:§ Load database once.§ Take a filesystem snapshot.§ Run tests.§ Restore from snapshot.§ Re-run tests.§ etc.

This is not a good solution for everyone. It worked for one specific use case.
