它可能更快不是因为并行读取,而是因为数据分布在许多 CPU 核心上。 在现代操作系统中,PostgreSQL 数据文件被很好地缓存。 通过预读,可以从存储中获取比 PG 守护进程请求更大的块。 因此,查询性能不受磁盘 I/O 的限制。 它消耗 CPU 周期来:
从表页中一次读取一行;
比较字符串值和条件 WHERE.
让我们运行一个简单的查询 select:
tpch=# explain analyze select l_quantity as sum_qty from lineitem where l_shipdate <= date '1998-12-01' - interval '105' day;
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on lineitem (cost=0.00..1964772.00 rows=58856235 width=5) (actual time=0.014..16951.669 rows=58839715 loops=1)
Filter: (l_shipdate <= '1998-08-18 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)
Rows Removed by Filter: 1146337
Planning Time: 0.203 ms
Execution Time: 19035.100 ms
顺序扫描产生太多行而没有聚合,因此查询由单个 CPU 核心执行。
如果添加 SUM(),您可以看到两个工作流程将有助于加快查询速度:
explain analyze select sum(l_quantity) as sum_qty from lineitem where l_shipdate <= date '1998-12-01' - interval '105' day;

并行聚合
并行顺序扫描节点生成用于部分聚合的行。 “部分聚合”节点使用以下方式修剪这些行 SUM()。 最后,“Gather”节点收集每个工作进程的 SUM 计数器。
PostgreSQL 9.6+ может выполнять вложенные циклы параллельно — это простая операция.

最重要的是,只有当这些部分足够大时,这些部分的连接才是并行的。
并行追加
并行追加 可以在不同的工作流程中使用不同的块来代替。 这通常发生在 UNION ALL 查询中。 缺点是并行性较差,因为每个工作进程仅处理 1 个请求。
尽管已启用 2 个工作进程,但这里有 4 个工作进程正在运行。
tpch=# explain (costs off) select sum(l_quantity) as sum_qty from lineitem where l_shipdate <= date '1998-12-01' - interval '105' day union all select sum(l_quantity) as sum_qty from lineitem where l_shipdate <= date '2000-12-01' - interval '105' day;
