Brett Bergquist commented on DERBY-6858: ---------------------------------------- Another datapoint. I downloaded the repro and ran it in the slow case. I then uses SquirrelSQL to connect to the database and played around a bit. I found that the statement update ChildUpdate set parentName = 'Parent 1' where parentName = 'Parent 2'; causes the long run time (around 11 seconds on my Macbook Pro) yet if I then do: update ChildUpdate set parentName = 'Parent 2' where parentName = 'Parent 1'; this takes about 0.2 seconds. This is repeatable in that running the first statement setting "Parent 1" is always about 11 seconds and running the second always is about 0.2 seconds. > Apache Derby simple update statement performance becomes 1500% worse when > adding one byte to a column > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-6858 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6858 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 10.11.1.1, 10.12.1.1 > Environment: windows 7 64 bit > Reporter: somebody > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: repro.java, repro.java, repro.java > > > I have 2 tables as follows: > ParentUpdate > name varchar(255) > value int not null > primary key: name > ChildUpdate > parentName varchar(255) > name varchar(255) > value int > data varchar(1000) > primary key: name foreign key: parentName to ParentUpdate.name > When I run the statement "update ChildUpdate set parentName = 'Parent 2' > where parentName = 'Parent 1'" with 2500 records in the ChildUpdate table and > 1 record in the ParentUpdate table with only a single byte difference in data > size in the ChildUpdate table, the performance decreases by 15 times. > When the ChildUpdate data column has exactly 14 bytes of the same character > the runtime of the above query is about 500 milliseconds. When I add one more > byte to the data column of ChildUpdate the performance all of a sudden > becomes about 7500 milliseconds. > If i then decrease the data size back to 14 from 15 it's fast again.
