BaseX query optimization on join

2019-06-07 14:16发布

问题:

After the issue in the following Stackoverflow is fixed, I have another problem when I try to make a join as below. The last query takes about 250ms while the first two take only 16ms. Is there a better way to perform join between two items?

Note: You can find the test data from this link.

  let $PlGeTys :=
  /root/PlGeTys/PlGeTy[
    isOfPlCt/@href=/root/PlCts/PlCt[
      environment='AIR'
    ]/@id
  ]

let $PlSpTys :=
  /root/PlSpTys/PlSpTy[
    isOfPlGeTy/@href=$PlGeTys/@id
  ]

for  $PlGeTy in  $PlGeTys,
 $PlSpTy in  $PlSpTys
 where $PlSpTy/isOfPlGeTy/@href=$PlGeTy/@id
 return <done>{$PlGeTy, $PlSpTy }</done>

Here is the query info:

Update two:

The issue above is fixed. But when I want to use it in a local function as below, it takes about 700 ms. Am I doing something wrong?

declare function local:result($root as element(root)) as element()* {
  let $PlCts := $root/PlCts/PlCt[environment = 'AIR']/@id
  for $PlGeTy in $root/PlGeTys/PlGeTy[isOfPlCt/@href = $PlCts],
      $PlSpTy in $root/PlSpTys/PlSpTy[isOfPlGeTy/@href = $PlGeTy/@id]
  return <done>{ $PlGeTy, $PlSpTy }</done>
};

let $result := local:result(/root)
return $result

Update three: Now, I have another issue when I extend the query with the additional "Cont" items, The query execution lasts about 600 ms. But without "Cont" items, it takes only 35 ms. Do you any suggestion on optimizing this query?

let $PlCts := /root/PlCts/PlCt[environment = 'AIR']/@id

for $PlGeTy in /root/PlGeTys/PlGeTy[isOfPlCt/@href = $PlCts],
    $PlSpTy in /root/PlSpTys/PlSpTy[isOfPlGeTy/@href = $PlGeTy/@id],
    $Cont in /root/Conts/Cont[@id=$PlSpTy/isOfCont/@href]
return <done>{ $PlGeTy, $PlSpTy, $Cont }</done>

回答1:

In those for loops, the results of the two "large" XPath expressions are already cached by the optimizer. Furthermore, you're actually comparing the href/id attributes twice.

Cleaning up the query removing this double effort reduces the execution time by about 90%.

let $PlCts := /root/PlCts/PlCt[environment = 'AIR']/@id
for $PlGeTy in /root/PlGeTys/PlGeTy[isOfPlCt/@href = $PlCts],
    $PlSpTy in /root/PlSpTys/PlSpTy[isOfPlGeTy/@href = $PlGeTy/@id]
return <done>{ $PlGeTy, $PlSpTy }</done>
