PostgreSQL 8.1 vs. SQLite 3.6.20 in the real application

For testing is used the production PostgreSQL database. I did build SQLite database as described here:
Trigger-based PostgreSQL to SQLite online replication

The test requests is real queries from the production system. The PostgreSQL is too slow on these queries and I search more performance database system for the intranet/internet portal. All tables have needed indices. Some tables are renamed in SQLite database but their names and fields names are similar.

Note
The PostgreSQL quries is rewrited for better index usage but SQLite query planner work fine without any additional tricks. The query conditions are generated by application query builder for user filters and settings and when you can see identical conditions these are not always identical.

На форуме Dmitry Arefiev задал вопросы по трактовке полученных измерений. Привожу здесь сами вопросы и свои ответы:

- среда исполнения запросов;
- сколько записей каждый запрос должен возвратить;
- что за время мерилось;
- что там со статистикой;
- расположены файлы БД на одном носителе или на разных;
- кэш файловой системы / СУБД холодный или горячий;


1. Указано ."timer on", а с точки начинаются команды эскулайт шелла. Ни в каких врапперах этих команд нет, поскольку имплементированы они именно в коде шелла эскулайт.

2. Приведен explain analyze в постгресе, в котором кол-во возвращаемых записей подсчитывается:


"... (actual time=1355.607..1355.607 rows=1 loops=1)"
...
"... (actual time=1741.917..1741.954 rows=33 loops=1)"


Т.е. первый запрос вернет 1 строку, а второй - 33.

3. Сказано, что измерялось время встроенным таймером в эскулайт и командой explain analyze в постгресе. Смотрим "man time"
user - время CPU, которое занял пользователь (сумма значений tms_utime и
tms_cutime в структуре struct tms , которая возвращается вызовом times(2)),
sys - время CPU занятое системой (сумма значений tms_stime и tms_cstime в структуре struct tms ,
которая возвращается вызовом times(2)).
В документации постгреса сказано, что explain analyze вернет реальное время, опять же, обратимся к man time
real - реальное время выполнение между вызовом и завершением

Постгрес не считает время на передачу данных клиенту, т.к. это время не может быть посчитано самой СУБД. Показывается время извлечения данных, притом нужно учесть, что для большого кол-ва записей может потребоваться еще дополнительно значительное время на их передачу клиенту. Эскулайт исполняется в процессе приложения, потому извлеченные данные сразу же доступны клиенту, не требуется их куда-либо передавать.

Поясню на примере:

time sqlite3 work.db '.read query'
real 0m0.014s
user 0m0.012s
sys 0m0.004s

Здесь 14 мс - время на выборку, передачу данных клиенту и вывод их на консоль. Процессор многоядерный, потому real < user+sys.

4. Постгрес о наличи своей статистики отрапортовал. Притом, поскольку реальный результат совпал с ожидаемым (см. explain analyze), известно, что статистика актуальная. В эскулайте без разницы, была собрана статистика командой analyze или нет, потому и не упоминается.

5. В "Hardware" указан 1 диск, на нем все и расположено. А где же еще. Есть еще системный диск и проч., но в тестах они не участвуют, потому и не упоминаются.

6. Для эскулайт время sys как раз показывает заполнение кэша ФС, если кэш "горячий", то это время равно 0. В постгресе кэш горячий, т.к. сказано, что это _рабочая_ система.
