为什么快速 API 需要 10 分钟以上才能将 100,000 行插入 SQL 数据库

Question

I've tried using SqlAlchemy, as well as raw mysql.connector here, but commiting an insert into a SQL database from FastAPI takes forever.

I wanted to make sure it wasn't just my DB, so I tried it on a local script and it ran in a couple seconds.

How can I work with FastAPI to make this query possible?

Thanks!

You are killing performances because you try a " RBAR " approach which is not suitable in RDBMS... You use a loop and execute an SQL INSERT of only one row... When the RDBMS is facing a query, the sequence of execution is the following:

• does the user that throw the query be authenticate?
• parsing the string to verify the syntax
• looking for metadata (tables, columns, datatypes...)
• analyzing which operations on tables and columns this user is granted
• creating an execution plan to sequences all the operations needed for the query
• setting up lock for concurrency
• executing the query (inserting only 1 row)
• throw back an error or a OK message

Every steps consumes time... and your are all theses steps 100 000 times because of your loop.

Usually when inserting in a table many rows, there just one query to do even if the INSERT concerns 10000000000 rows from a file !
