#27499: Pickling a QuerySet evaluates the querysets given to Prefetch in prefetch_related -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Adam | Owner: nobody Chainz | Type: | Status: new Uncategorized | Component: | Version: 1.10 Uncategorized | Severity: Normal | Keywords: prefetch_related Triage Stage: | Has patch: 0 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Wrote a minimal test case already for `tests/queryset_pickle/tests.py`:
{{{ def test_pickle_prefetch_related_queryset_not_evaluated(self): Group.objects.create(name='foo') groups = Group.objects.prefetch_related( models.Prefetch('event_set', queryset=Event.objects.order_by('id')) ) list(groups) # evaluate QS with self.assertNumQueries(0): pickle.dumps(groups) }}} At current doing `pickle.dumps` evaluates `Event.objects.order_by('id')` which is obviously a bad thing, especially if `Event` is a large table! Found this as a kind of regression when upgrading 1.9 -> 1.10 because the `prefetch_related` refactoring seems to be keeping the `Prefetch` objects around more, but afaict it has always existed. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/27499> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
