I created partition on username so that when i use select command it need to search on one partition only. But i am not sure if this will be benifitial as there is already a index on username.
explain SELECT count(*) FROM ofRoster_par WHERE username='1';

Right now there are just 400 000 records on the table but on the production records will be around 80 million.
Time taken by both query is also the same :-(
PARTITION BY HASH
is, in my opinion, useless .
In your example, INDEX(username)
on a non-partitioned table would probably be faster than using PARTITION BY HASH(username)
.
You already have such an index. How fast was it?
Here's what is happening:
With partitioning:
KEY(username)
(and not the data) to do the COUNT(*)
inside the index (note "Using index") Without partitioning:
KEY(username)
(and not the data) to do the COUNT(*)
inside the index (note "Using index") Other comments:
username
is unique, consider making it the PRIMARY KEY
and get rid of rosterID
. (You may want to keep rosterID
because it is smaller and used for JOINing
to several other tables.) INT(64)
where you meant VARCHAR(64)
. This may have impacted your timing test. (jid(255))
are rarely useful. Let's see how you are using it. BIGINT
(8 bytes); INT UNSIGNED
(4 bytes) can handle 400 crore. latin1
limits you to western European languages? EXPLAIN
with partitioned tables, use EXPLAIN PARTITIONS SELECT ...
. You may get some surprises.
