Several times I had such situation: query that has worked quickly started work in 1000-10_000 times slower in one moment when there was no changes. MySQL stops using proper index and I have to use FORCE INDEX(..)
. It happens with queries to big tables with 10-300M records.
MySQL: 5.6.23 (AWS RDS, db.r3.xlarge)
There is the last issue:
table1 (175M records)
CREATE TABLE `table1` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`site_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`created_at` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
`type` varchar(25) DEFAULT NULL,
...
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `index_table1_on_site_id_and_..._and_type_and_...` (`site_id`,`...`,`type`,`...`),
KEY `index_table1_on_created_at_and_site_id` (`created_at`,`site_id`),
KEY `index_table1_on_site_id_and_type_and_created_at_and_...` (`site_id`,`type`,`created_at`,`...`) USING BTREE,
KEY `index_table1_on_site_and_type_and_..._and_created` (`site_id`,`type`,`..._id`,`created_at`),
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=... DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
table2 (2M records)
CREATE TABLE `table2` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`table1_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
...
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
...
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=... DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
request:
SELECT `table1`.* FROM `table1`
INNER JOIN `table2` ON `table2`.`table1_id` = `table1`.`id`
WHERE `table1`.`type` IN ('...', '...')
AND `table1`.`site_id` = ...
AND (table1.created_at >= '...')
AND (table1.created_at <= '...')
ORDER BY `table1`.`id` DESC LIMIT 30 offset 0;
was ~10-80ms now > 420 sec
request with FORCE INDEX
:
SELECT `table1`.* FROM `table1` USE INDEX (`index_table1_on_site_id_and_type_and_created_at_and_...`)
INNER JOIN `table2` ON `table2`.`table1_id` = `table1`.`id`
WHERE `table1`.`type` IN ('...', '...')
AND `table1`.`site_id` = ...
AND (table1.created_at >= '...')
AND (table1.created_at <= '...')
ORDER BY `table1`.`id` DESC LIMIT 30 offset 0;
~85 ms

Is there any solutions to avoid such unpredictable MySQL behaviour? I can't add FORCE INDEX
to all requests, what to do?
PS:
SELECT * FROM `table1`
INNER JOIN `table2` ON `table2`.`table1_id` = `table1`.`id`
WHERE `table1`.`site_id` = ... ;
returns just 122 records
PSS: Crazy, but request works faster for wider time period

If the tables have changed, you can try running ANALYZE TABLE
( http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/analyze-table.html ) to update the stats synchronously. InnoDB persists optimizer stats which has some limitations .
Based on the date ranges, I also wonder if it would be just as fast if you did
AND (table1.created_at >= '2016-06-01') AND (table1.created_at <= '2016-06-07)'
assuming that the older data has more stable stats, and it's not the size that makes the difference.
