Hi,
I'm getting low performance on SUM and GROUP BY queries.
How can I improve my database to perform such queries.
Here is my table schema:
=> \d acct_2010_25
Tabela "public.acct_2010_25"
Coluna | Tipo |
Modificadores
----------------+-----------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------
ip_src | inet | not null default
'0.0.0.0'::inet
ip_dst | inet | not null default
'0.0.0.0'::inet
as_src | bigint | not null default 0
as_dst | bigint | not null default 0
port_src | integer | not null default 0
port_dst | integer | not null default 0
tcp_flags | smallint | not null default 0
ip_proto | smallint | not null default 0
packets | integer | not null
flows | integer | not null default 0
bytes | bigint | not null
stamp_inserted | timestamp without time zone | not null default '0001-01-01
00:00:00 BC'::timestamp without time zone
stamp_updated | timestamp without time zone |
Índices:
"acct_2010_25_pk" PRIMARY KEY, btree (stamp_inserted, ip_src, ip_dst,
port_src, port_dst, ip_proto)
"ibytes_acct_2010_25" btree (bytes)
Here is my one query example (could add pk to flow and packet fields):
=> explain analyze SELECT ip_src, port_src, ip_dst, port_dst, tcp_flags,
ip_proto,SUM("bytes"),SUM("packets"),SUM("flows") FROM "acct_2010_25" WHERE
"stamp_inserted">='2010-06-20 10:10' AND "stamp_inserted"<'2010-06-21 10:10'
GROUP BY ip_src, port_src, ip_dst, port_dst, tcp_flags, ip_proto order by
SUM(bytes) desc LIMIT 50 OFFSET 0;

Another one just summing bytes (still low):
=> explain analyze SELECT ip_src, port_src, ip_dst, port_dst, tcp_flags,
ip_proto,SUM("bytes") FROM "acct_2010_25" WHERE
"stamp_inserted">='2010-06-20 10:10' AND "stamp_inserted"<'2010-06-21 10:10'
GROUP BY ip_src, port_src, ip_dst, port_dst, tcp_flags, ip_proto LIMIT 50
OFFSET 0;

The server has 2 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5430 @ 2.66GHz and 16GB RAM.
I'm using PostgreSQL 8.1.18 default config from Centos 5.5 (just
increased checkpoint_segments to 50).
What can I change to increase performance?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.
