From b4c6c28fbf438a02d1d20f0d22b8df3bb51ce922 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomas Vondra Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2020 15:25:55 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 3/8] Implement incremental sort Incremental sort is an optimized variant of multikey sort for cases when the input is already sorted by a prefix of the sort keys. For example when a sort by (key1, key2 ... keyN) is requested, and the input is already sorted by (key1, key2 ... keyM), M < N, we can divide the input into groups where keys (key1, ... keyM) are equal, and only sort on the remaining columns. The implemented algorithm operates in two different modes: - Fetching a minimum number of tuples without checking prefix key group membership and sorting on all columns when safe. - Fetching all tuples for a single prefix key group and sorting on solely the unsorted columns. We always begin in the first mode, and employ a heuristic to switch into the second mode if we believe it's beneficial. Sorting incrementally can potentially use less memory (and possibly avoid spilling to disk), avoid fetching and sorting all tuples in the dataset (particularly useful when a LIMIT clause has been specified), and begin returning tuples before the entire result set is available. Small datasets which fit entirely in memory and must be fully realized and sorted may be slightly slower, which we reflect in the costing implementation. The hybrid mode approach allows us to optimize for both very small groups (where the overhead of a new tuplesort is high) and very large groups (where we can lower cost by not having to sort on already sorted columns), albeit at some extra cost while switching between modes.
