Hi.
I've now got a test-set that can reproduce the problem where the two
fully equivalent queries (
body_fts @@ to_tsquery("commonterm & nonexistingterm")
and
body_fts @@ to_tsquery("coomonterm") AND body_fts @@
to_tsquery("nonexistingterm")
give a difference of x300 in execution time. (grows with
document-base-size).
this can now be reproduced using:
* http://krogh.cc/~jesper/fts-queryplan.pl and
http://krogh.cc/~jesper/words.txt
It build up a table with 200.000 documents where "commonterm" exists in
all of them. "nonexistingterm" is in 0.
To get the query-planner get a "sane" query I need to do a:
ftstest# set enable_seqscan=off
Then:
ftstest=# explain analyze select id from ftstest where body_fts @@
to_tsquery('nonexistingterm & commonterm');
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on ftstest (cost=5563.09..7230.93 rows=1000 width=4)
(actual time=30.861..30.861 rows=0 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (body_fts @@ to_tsquery('nonexistingterm &
commonterm'::text))
-> Bitmap Index Scan on ftstest_gin_idx (cost=0.00..5562.84
rows=1000 width=0) (actual time=30.856..30.856 rows=0 loops=1)
Index Cond: (body_fts @@ to_tsquery('nonexistingterm &
commonterm'::text))
Total runtime: 30.907 ms
(5 rows)
ftstest=# explain analyze select id from ftstest where body_fts @@
to_tsquery('nonexistingterm') and body_fts @@ to_tsquery('commonterm');
QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on ftstest (cost=5565.59..7238.43 rows=1000 width=4)
(actual time=0.059..0.059 rows=0 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: ((body_fts @@ to_tsquery('nonexistingterm'::text)) AND
(body_fts @@ to_tsquery('commonterm'::text)))
-> Bitmap Index Scan on ftstest_gin_idx (cost=0.00..5565.34
rows=1000 width=0) (actual time=0.057..0.057 rows=0 loops=1)
Index Cond: ((body_fts @@ to_tsquery('nonexistingterm'::text))
AND (body_fts @@ to_tsquery('commonterm'::text)))
Total runtime: 0.111 ms
(5 rows)
Run repeatedly to get a full memory recident dataset.
In this situation the former query end up being 300x slower than the
latter allthough they are fully equivalent.
