I'm trying to fetch 100 posts and order them by the number of times they've been "remixed" in the last week. Here is my query thus far:
SELECT COUNT(remixes.post_id) AS count, posts.title
FROM posts
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT * FROM remixes WHERE created_at >= 1343053513
) AS remixes ON posts.id = remixes.post_id
GROUP BY posts.id
ORDER BY count DESC, posts.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
This produces the correct result; however, after running DESCRIBE
I get this:
And here are my indexes on posts
:
And my indexes on remixes
:
And here are my questions:
Thanks in advance!
Per Zane's solution, I've updated my query to:
SELECT COUNT(remixes.post_id) AS count, posts.title
FROM posts
LEFT JOIN remixes ON posts.id = remixes.post_id AND remixes.created_at >= 1343053513
GROUP BY posts.id
ORDER BY count DESC, posts.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
And here's the latest DESCRIBE
I'm still worried about the filesort
part. Any ideas?
Try not to wrap your JOIN
in a sub-select as this will create an unindexed temporary table to store the result of the subselect in, where it then joins on that unindexed table.
Instead, put created_at
as an additional join condition when joining the remixes table:
SELECT
a.title, COUNT(b.post_id) AS remixcnt
FROM
posts a
LEFT JOIN
remixes b ON a.id = b.post_id AND b.created_at >= 1343053513
GROUP BY
a.id, a.title
ORDER BY
remixcnt DESC, a.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
It seems to me that
SELECT COUNT(remixes.post_id) AS count, posts.title
FROM posts
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT * FROM remixes WHERE created_at >= 1343053513
) AS remixes ON posts.id = remixes.post_id
GROUP BY posts.id
ORDER BY count DESC, posts.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
could be rewritten as
SELECT COUNT(r.post_id) AS count, posts.title
FROM posts
LEFT JOIN remixes r ON posts.id = r.post_id
WHERE r.created_at >= 1343053513
GROUP BY posts.id
ORDER BY count DESC, posts.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
which should give you a better EXPLAIN
plan and run faster.
