The patch listing query is punishingly slow under even very simple
filters.
The new data model in 3.0 will help _a lot_, so this is a simple fix: I
did try indexes but haven't got really deeply into the weeds of what we can do
with them.
Move a number of things from select_related to prefetch_related: we trade off
one big, inefficient query for a slightly larger number of significantly more
efficient queries.
On my laptop with 2 copies of the canonical kernel team list loaded into the
database, and considering only the API view (the JSON view is always faster)
with warm caches and considering the entire set of SQL queries:
- /api/patches/?project=1
~1.4-1.5s -> <100ms, something like 14x better
- /api/patches/?project=1&since=2010-11-01T00:00:00
~1.7-1.8s -> <560ms, something like 3x better (now dominated by the
counting query only invoked on the HTML API view,
not the pure JSON API view.)
The things I moved:
* project: this was generating SQL that looked like:
INNER JOIN `patchwork_project` T5
ON (`patchwork_submission`.`project_id` = T5.`id`)
This is correct but we've already had to join the patchwork_submission
table and perhaps as a result it seems to be inefficient.
* series__project: Likewise we've already had to join the series table,
doing another join is possibly why it is inefficient.
* delegate: I do not know why this was tanking performance. I think it
might relate to the strategy mysql was using.
