篇首语:本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理,主要介绍了EXPLAIN 命令详解相关的知识,希望对你有一定的参考价值。

在工作中,我们用于捕捉性能问题最常用的就是打开慢查询,定位执行效率差的SQL,那么当我们定位到一个SQL以后还不算完事,我们还需要知道该SQL的执行计划,比如是全表扫描,还是索引扫描,这些都需要通过EXPLAIN去完成。EXPLAIN命令是查看优化器如何决定执行查询的主要方法。可以帮助我们深入了解mysql的基于开销的优化器,还可以获得很多可能被优化器考虑到的访问策略的细节,以及当运行SQL语句时哪种策略预计会被优化器采用。需要注意的是,生成的QEP并不确定,它可能会根据很多因素发生改变。MySQL不会将一个QEP和某个给定查询绑定,QEP将由SQL语句每次执行时的实际情况确定,即便使用存储过程也是如此。尽管在存储过程中SQL语句都是预先解析过的,但QEP仍然会在每次调用存储过程的时候才被确定。

通过执行计划可以知道什么?

MySQL执行计划调用方式
1.EXPLAIN SELECT ……
变体:
2.EXPLAIN EXTENDED SELECT ……
将执行计划"反编译"成SELECT语句,运行SHOW WARNINGS
可得到被MySQL优化器优化后的查询语句
3.EXPLAIN PARTITIONS SELECT ……
用于分区表的EXPLAIN生成QEP的信息

执行计划包含的信息

+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+

1. id:

包含一组数字,表示查询中执行select子句或操作表的顺序

Example(id相同,执行顺序由上至下

2. select_type

示查询中每个select子句的类型(简单OR复杂)

a. SIMPLE:查询中不包含子查询或者UNION
b. 查询中若包含任何复杂的子部分,最外层查询则被标记为:PRIMARY
c. 在SELECT或WHERE列表中包含了子查询,该子查询被标记为:SUBQUERY
d. 在FROM列表中包含的子查询被标记为:DERIVED(衍生)用来表示包含在from子句中的子查询的select,mysql会递归执行并将结果放到一个临时表中。服务器内部称为"派生表",因为该临时表是从子查询中派生出来的
e. 若第二个SELECT出现在UNION之后,则被标记为UNION;若UNION包含在FROM子句的子查询中,外层SELECT将被标记为:DERIVED
f. 从UNION表获取结果的SELECT被标记为:UNION RESULT

SUBQUERY和UNION还可以被标记为DEPENDENT和UNCACHEABLE。
DEPENDENT意味着select依赖于外层查询中发现的数据。
UNCACHEABLE意味着select中的某些 特性阻止结果被缓存于一个item_cache中。

Example

第一行:id列为1,表示第一个select,select_type列的primary表 示该查询为外层查询,table列被标记为<derived3>,表示查询结果来自一个衍生表,其中3代表该查询衍生自第三个select查询,即id为3的select。
第二行:id为3,表示该查询的执行次序为2( 4 => 3),是整个查询中第三个select的一部分。因查询包含在from中,所以为derived。
第三行:select列表中的子查询,select_type为subquery,为整个查询中的第二个select。
第四行:select_type为union,说明第四个select是union里的第二个select,最先执行。
第五行:代表从union的临时表中读取行的阶段,table列的<union1,4>表示用第一个和第四个select的结果进行union操作。

3. type                                       

表示MySQL在表中找到所需行的方式,又称“访问类型”,常见类型如下:

 ALL, index,  range, ref, eq_ref, const, system, NULL

从左到右,性能从最差到最好

Example

a. ALL:Full Table Scan, MySQL将遍历全表以找到匹配的行

(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select * from t1 where email=‘‘;
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 4 | Using where |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

b. index:Full Index Scan,index与ALL区别为index类型只遍历索引树

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id from t1;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | NULL | age | 5 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

c. range:索引范围扫描,对索引的扫描开始于某一点,返回匹配值域的行。显而易见的索引范围扫描是带有between或者where子句里带有<, >查询。当mysql使用索引去查找一系列值时,例如IN()和OR列表,也会显示range(范围扫描),当然性能上面是有差异的。

(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select * from t1 where id in (1,4);
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | range | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | NULL | 2 | Using where |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+

(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select * from t1 where name=yayun;
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+-------+------+-------------+

+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+-------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>

e. eq_ref:类似ref,区别就在使用的索引是唯一索引,对于每个索引键值,表中只有一条记录匹配,简单来说,就是多表连接中使用primary key或者 unique key作为关联条件

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select t1.name from t1, t2 where t1.id=t2.id;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | PRIMARY | name | 63 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t2 | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | test.t1.id | 1 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>

f. const、system:当MySQL对查询某部分进行优化,并转换为一个常量时,使用这些类型访问。如将主键置于where列表中,MySQL就能将该查询转换为一个常量

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select * from ( select * from t1 where id=1)b1;
+----+-------------+------------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+------------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
| 1 | PRIMARY | <derived2> | system | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 1 | |
| 2 | DERIVED | t1 | const | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | | 1 | |
+----+-------------+------------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>
技术分享图片

注:system是const类型的特例,当查询的表只有一行的情况下,使用system

g. NULL:MySQL在优化过程中分解语句,执行时甚至不用访问表或索引,例如从一个索引列里选取最小值可以通过单独索引查找完成。

+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+-------+------+------------------------------+
| 1 | PRIMARY | t1 | const | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | const | 1 |

| 2 | SUBQUERY | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | Select tables optimized away |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+-------+------+------------------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

4. possible_keys
指出MySQL能使用哪个索引在表中找到记录,查询涉及到的字段上若存在索引,则该索引将被列出,但不一定被查询使用


5. key
显示MySQL在查询中实际使用的索引,若没有使用索引,显示为NULL

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id,age from t1;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | NULL | age | 5 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>

6. key_len
表示索引中使用的字节数,可通过该列计算查询中使用的索引的长度(key_len显示的值为索引字段的最大可能长度,并非实际使用长度,即key_len是根据表定义计算而得,不是通过表内检索出的)

7. ref
表示上述表的连接匹配条件,即哪些列或常量被用于查找索引列上的值

8. rows
表示MySQL根据表统计信息及索引选用情况,估算的找到所需的记录所需
要读取的行数

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select * from t1 , t2 where t1.id=t2.id and t2.name=atlas;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t2 | ref | PRIMARY,name | name | 63 | const | 1 | Using where |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | test.t2.id | 1 | |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+------------+------+-------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

9. Extra
包含不适合在其他列中显示但十分重要的额外信息
a. Using index
该值表示相应的select操作中使用了覆盖索引(Covering Index)

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id from t1;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | NULL | age | 5 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>
技术分享图片

覆盖索引(Covering Index)
MySQL可以利用索引返回select列表中的字段,而不必根据索引再次读取数据文件
包含所有满足查询需要的数据的索引称为覆盖索引(Covering Index)
注意:如果要使用覆盖索引,一定要注意select列表中只取出需要的列,不可select *,因为如果将所有字段一起做索引会导致索引文件过大,查询性能下降

b. Using where
表示mysql服务器将在存储引擎检索行后再进行过滤。许多where条件里涉及索引中的列,当(并且如果)它读取索引时,就能被存储引擎检验,因此不是所有带where字句的查询都会显示"Using where"。有时"Using where"的出现就是一个暗示:查询可受益与不同的索引。

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id,name from t1 where id<4;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | PRIMARY | name | 63 | NULL | 4 | Using where; Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

c. Using temporary
表示MySQL需要使用临时表来存储结果集,常见于排序和分组查询

这个值表示使用了内部临时(基于内存的)表。一个查询可能用到多个临时表。有很多原因都会导致MySQL在执行查询期间创建临时表。两个常见的原因是在来自不同表的上使用了DISTINCT,或者使用了不同的ORDER BY和GROUP BY列。可以强制指定一个临时表使用基于磁盘的MyISAM存储引擎。这样做的原因主要有两个:
1)内部临时表占用的空间超过min(tmp_table_size,max_heap_table_size)系统变量的限制
2)使用了TEXT/BLOB 列

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id from t1 where id in (1,2) group by age,name;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | range | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | NULL | 2 | Using where; Using temporary; Using filesort |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

d. Using filesort
MySQL中无法利用索引完成的排序操作称为“文件排序”

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id,age from t1 order by name; 
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 4 | Using filesort |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select id,age from t1 order by age;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | NULL | age | 5 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>

e. Using join buffer
改值强调了在获取连接条件时没有使用索引,并且需要连接缓冲区来存储中间结果。如果出现了这个值,那应该注意,根据查询的具体情况可能需要添加索引来改进能。

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select t1.name from t1 inner join t2 on t1.name=t2.name;
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+--------------+------+--------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+--------------+------+--------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | index | name | name | 63 | NULL | 4 | Using index |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t2 | ref | name | name | 63 | test.t1.name | 2 | Using where; Using index |
+----+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+--------------+------+--------------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

f. Impossible where
这个值强调了where语句会导致没有符合条件的行。

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE 1=2;
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | Impossible WHERE |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

h. Select tables optimized away
这个值意味着仅通过使用索引,优化器可能仅从聚合函数结果中返回一行.

Example

技术分享图片
(root@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>explain select max(id) from t1;
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | Select tables optimized away |
+----+-------------+-------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

(root
@yayun-mysql-server) [test]>

I. Index merges
当MySQL 决定要在一个给定的表上使用超过一个索引的时候,就会出现以下格式中的一个,详细说明使用的索引以及合并的类型。
Using sort_union(...)
Using union(...)
Using intersect(...)

 

总结:
? EXPLAIN不会告诉你关于触发器、存储过程的信息或用户自定义函数对查询的影响情况
? EXPLAIN不考虑各种Cache
? EXPLAIN不能显示MySQL在执行查询时所作的优化工作
? 部分统计信息是估算的,并非精确值
? EXPALIN只能解释SELECT操作,其他操作要重写为SELECT后查看执行计划。
