Thread: tsearch2 poor performance
Hi all. I am doing some work with tsearch2 and am not sure what to
expect out of it, performance wise. Here is my setup:
Table "public.product"
Column | Type | Modifiers
-------------+----------+-------------------------------------------------
description | text |
product_id | integer | default nextval('product_product_id_seq'::text)
vector | tsvector |
Indexes:
"vector_idx" gist (vector)
Triggers:
tsvectorupdate BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON product FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE tsearch2('vector', 'description')
This table has 3,000,000 rows in it. Each description field has roughly 50 characters. There are fewer than ten
thousanddistinct words in my 3,000,000 rows. The vector was filled using the description fields values. I ran a
vacuumfull analyze before executing any of my queries.
Here are a couple of tests I performed using the tsearch index and like;
search_test=# select count(*) from product where vector @@ to_tsquery('oil');
count
--------
226357
(1 row)
Time: 191056.230 ms
search_test=# select count(*) from product where vector @@ to_tsquery('hydrogen');
count
--------
226868
(1 row)
Time: 306411.957 ms
search_test=# select count(*) from product where description like '% oil %';
count
--------
226357
(1 row)
Time: 38426.851 ms
search_test=# select count(*) from product where description like '% hydrogen %';
count
--------
226868
(1 row)
Time: 38265.421 ms
Both of the likes are using a sequential scan and both of the tsearch queries use the gist index. Did I miss a
configurationparameter, are these queries incorrectly using tsearch2,or is this tsearch2's average performance? Thanks
inadvance for the input!

Kris, could you post 'explain analyze' output ? Also, could you disable index usage (set enable_indexscan=off) and rerun search using tsearch2 ? also, could you run 'stat' function to see frequency distribution of words. See http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/oddmuse/index.cgi/Tsearch_V2_Notes for details. Oleg On Fri, 24 Sep 2004, Kris Kiger wrote: > Hi all.

Here is the explain analyze output, funny thing, after I ran josh's
query, mine ran a lot faster....maybe it forced a caching?;

Disabling Index usage slowed it down:

Can't speak to tsearch2 in specific but I have learned to be very cautious -- caching does indeed make a noticible
differenceon this sort of thing, especially if you have enough RAM to hold a significant amount of the data. Either
keepchanging the query target or do something violent to wipe the cache(s).

Here is the explain analyze output, funny thing, after I ran josh's
query, mine ran a lot faster....maybe it forced a caching?;

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
Regardless of caching, the queries are still taking 19~20 seconds to run on the 3,000,000 rows. I've played with performance tuning and nothing seems to make much of a difference. If I am reading that list from stat correctly, then I am operating on 508 distinct words. Is this the performance I should expect from tsearch2? Or is something still awry? I'm inclined to think something else is wrong, after reading some other people's tsearch performance stats. Thanks! Kris
Kris,
do you actually have only 508 disctinct words ? Could you try
more complex queries, say 2-3 words. Does these queries run faster ?

Oleg,
Thanks for the help on this.
The query I used to return the 508 number is:
SELECT * FROM stat('SELECT vector FROM product') ORDER BY ndoc
desc, word ;
Testing says, the more words I use, the faster the query is. My
original search word, 'oil', appears in 226,357 documents 233,266 times.
As far as distinct words go, 'oil' is middle of the road for
occurences. As it is set up now, the best search time I am getting on
this single word is roughly 22 seconds.

Josh,
I am running my tests on a dual processor PIII 1 GHz machine with
2Gb of RAM. There are four hard drives set up. One for OS/logging and
three in a raid-5 configuration for the postgres data directory.

Does this time (22 seconds) is still better than seq. scan (no index)
or standard 'LIKE' ?

What about other factors?
effective_cache_size
random_page_cost
sort_mem
FYI that example I gave was on a Dual P4-Xeon with 4 Gigs of ram and a
RAID5 over 6 drives.
Just curious.

Yes, it is much better than no index of sequential scan. We may just be

Hmm,
tsearch2 with no index should be faster than LIKE, because tsearch2
already has *parsed* and *sorted* list.
It's interesting to fetch just 226,357 documents from disk and see processing
time.
select count(*) from product limit 226357 offset 1;

The explain analyze output doesn't show that a gist index on the vector column is being used.
This is because either you don't have an index defined and\or the query is causing a poor plan to
be chosen. I've found that putting to_tsquery in the FROM clause does not execute fast.
Try rewriting the query as:
explain analyze SELECT count(to_tsquery('oil')) FROM product WHERE vector @@ to_tsquery('oil');
or
explain analyze SELECT count(*) FROM product WHERE vector @@ to_tsquery('oil');

Kris,
we're working on prototype of tsearchd - full text search daemon, which
maintain static inverted index outside of postgresql using the same
parser, dictionary tsearch2 does. This approach could scale up
fts capability preserving access to metadata, so yo may have
"archive" part of your collection (tsearchd) and "online", which could be
searchable with tsearch2.
Here is what we have right now:
pages ( tid integer, fts_index tsvector)
1. Create index
select count(tdindex(tid,fts_index)) from pages;
2. Flush index
select tdflush();
3. Search
select pages.tid, rank(fts_index,to_tsquery('supernovae & magellan')) as rank
from pages, tdsearch(to_tsquery('supernovae & magellan')) as idx where
tid=idx order by rank desc;
If it's possible, you could share your data, so we could test our
prototype on real data.

Oleg, the data I have right now was generated using a random paragraph
generator. The words are real words, but there are only 508 distinct
keywords in the 3,000,000 records that tsearch2 will pick up, using
default settings. I was using this data set for the purpose of testing
tsearch2's capabilities, so it's not real world data. If you still want
it, let me know where to send it and I will send you a dump of the DB.

Kris,
is't possible to share your "paragraph generator" ? It'd be better than
downloading the whole dump :)

Hey all, its me again. If I do not do a count(product_id) on my
tsearch2 queries, its actually really fast, for example;
explain analyze SELECT product_id FROM product, to_tsquery('bear') AS q
WHERE vector @@ q LIMIT 1000;
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limit (cost=0.00..2081.60 rows=1000 width=4) (actual
time=2.308..51.522 rows=1000 loops=1)
-> Nested Loop (cost=0.00..6244798.55 rows=3000001 width=4) (actual
time=2.299..45.637 rows=1000 loops=1)
-> Function Scan on q (cost=0.00..12.50 rows=1000 width=32)
(actual time=0.023..0.023 rows=1 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using vector_idx on product (cost=0.00..6207.29
rows=3000 width=36) (actual time=2.253..37.946 rows=1000 loops=1)
Index Cond: (product.vector @@ "outer".q)
Filter: (product.vector @@ "outer".q)
Total runtime: 122.487 ms
explain analyze SELECT product_id FROM product, to_tsquery('complex') AS
q WHERE vector @@ q LIMIT 1000;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limit (cost=0.00..2081.60 rows=1000 width=4) (actual
time=4.943..2325.949 rows=1000 loops=1)
-> Nested Loop (cost=0.00..6244798.55 rows=3000001 width=4) (actual
time=4.933..2319.885 rows=1000 loops=1)
-> Function Scan on q (cost=0.00..12.50 rows=1000 width=32)
(actual time=0.040..0.040 rows=1 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using vector_idx on product (cost=0.00..6207.29
rows=3000 width=36) (actual time=4.868..2311.087 rows=1000 loops=1)
Index Cond: (product.vector @@ "outer".q)
Filter: (product.vector @@ "outer".q)
Total runtime: 2329.389 ms
From what I know, there is only one reason I can offer why a count
takes approximately 30~40 seconds longer on these same queries... that
is that count has to evaluate whether a value is null or not. There
probably is a better reason, if anyone has any ideas, I would much
appreciate you sharing! Also, why the big difference in query times in
the above?
bear appears 780963 times in 696668 documents
complex appears 468669 times in 440339 documents.
Again, thanks all!

Hmm, I also really want to know what's the difference ?
Postgresql 8.0beta3 on Linux 2.4.25
tsearchd=# explain analyze select body from txt where fts_index @@ to_tsquery('oil') limit 1000;
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limit (cost=0.00..4027.67 rows=1000 width=315) (actual time=0.053..14.662 rows=1000 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using fts_idx on txt (cost=0.00..12083.02 rows=3000 width=315) (actual time=0.049..12.552 rows=1000
loops=1)
Index Cond: (fts_index @@ '\'oil\''::tsquery)
Total runtime: 15.848 ms
(4 rows)
tsearchd=# explain analyze select count(body) from txt where fts_index @@ to_tsquery('oil') limit 1000;
Didn't get result after 10 minutes :(

Oleg
