性能问题MySQL 5.7

Question

I've migrated my MySQL Database from 5.6 to version 5.7. Now I got a performance issue.

Specific statement are executed in both versions and I noticed that 5.7 is significant slower. Especially with large amount of Data.

Even a simple select statement is much slower

5.6: 2,948 sec
5.7: 6,536 sec

In my application i've got more complex statements that take way more time to execute so it get's unusable.

I've also noticed that the field count of my table matters in 5.7 but not in 5.6.

The configuration values in the my.ini didn't change.

To test this issue you can use the following code:

#Create Tables
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS aTest;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS sTest;
CREATE TABLE `aTest` (
    `T_BETREFF` CHAR(40) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `T_DATUM` DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
    `T_ZEIT` CHAR(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `T_SACHBEARB` CHAR(2) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `SYS_UID` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `SYS_DATE` TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    UNIQUE INDEX `TODO01` (`SYS_UID`),
    INDEX `TODO02` (`T_SACHBEARB`)
)
COLLATE='latin1_swedish_ci'
ENGINE=MyISAM;

CREATE TABLE `sTest` (
    `V_NR` CHAR(2) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `V_NAME` CHAR(30) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `SYS_UID` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `SYS_DATE` TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    UNIQUE INDEX `S_VERK01` (`SYS_UID`),
    UNIQUE INDEX `S_VERK02` (`V_NR`)
)
COLLATE='latin1_swedish_ci'
ENGINE=MyISAM;

#Fill Tables
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS load_foo_atest_data;
DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE load_foo_atest_data()
BEGIN
    DECLARE v_max int unsigned default 1000000;
    DECLARE v_counter INT UNSIGNED DEFAULT 0;

    WHILE v_counter < v_max DO
        INSERT INTO aTest (T_BETREFF, T_DATUM, T_ZEIT, T_SACHBEARB) VALUES('TEST 1234,', NOW(), '00:00', v_counter DIV 100000 * 10);
        IF (v_counter MOD 100000 = 0) THEN
            INSERT INTO sTest (V_NR, V_NAME) VALUES(v_counter DIV 100000 * 10, CONCAT('TEST', v_counter));
        END IF;
        SET v_counter=v_counter+1;
    END WHILE;
END //
DELIMITER ;

call load_foo_atest_data();

Here my statement:

FLUSH TABLES;
SELECT * FROM atest
LEFT JOIN sTEST ON v_nr = t_sachbearb
GROUP BY atest.sys_uid
ORDER BY t_datum DESC, t_zeit DESC

EDIT

EXPLAIN results:

# Do not set it larger than 30% of your available memory, as some memory

#*** INNODB Specific options ***

# If set to 1, InnoDB will flush (fsync) the transaction logs to the
# disk at each commit, which offers full ACID behavior. If you are
# willing to compromise this safety, and you are running small
# transactions, you may set this to 0 or 2 to reduce disk I/O to the
# logs. Value 0 means that the log is only written to the log file and
# the log file flushed to disk approximately once per second. Value 2
# means the log is written to the log file at each commit, but the log
# file is only flushed to disk approximately once per second. innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1

# The size of the buffer InnoDB uses for buffering log data. As soon as
# it is full, InnoDB will have to flush it to disk. As it is flushed
# once per second anyway, it does not make sense to have it very large
# (even with long transactions). innodb_log_buffer_size=1M

# InnoDB, unlike MyISAM, uses a buffer pool to cache both indexes and
# row data. The bigger you set this the less disk I/O is needed to
# access data in tables. On a dedicated database server you may set this
# parameter up to 80% of the machine physical memory size. Do not set it
# too large, though, because competition of the physical memory may
# cause paging in the operating system.  Note that on 32bit systems you
# might be limited to 2-3.5G of user level memory per process, so do not
# set it too high. innodb_buffer_pool_size=8M

# Size of each log file in a log group. You should set the combined size
# of log files to about 25%-100% of your buffer pool size to avoid
# unneeded buffer pool flush activity on log file overwrite. However,

Without a SQLFiddle, I cannot be sure, but I think your problem is caused by a change to the performance tuning of "group by" in 5.7 .

I'm not totally sure, but I think this means that query optimizer decisions that used to make sense no longer work so well. In your sample query, for instance, the EXPLAIN shows the query is using an index on the smaller table.

In the code you've posted, I don't think the "group by" clause does much - you're still retrieving every row because sysdate should be unique.

In this specific case, you may get better results by creating an index on table atest with columns t_sachbearb, atest.sys_uid, t_datum DESC, t_zeit DESC. This should cause the query optimizer to pick the index on the larger column, and use that for the filtering and sorting.

I'd consider rewriting without group by to support "distinct" requirements where possible.

Where not, you may need to look at the individual "EXPLAIN" output and optimize the indexes.
