When mysql adds an index, the query becomes slower.

1. Table structure, time1 adds a common index:

CREATE TABLE `time_table` (
    `time1` INT(11) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
    `time2` INT(11) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
    INDEX `time1` (`time1`)
)
ENGINE=MyISAM
;

2. Worm replication creates 2 million pieces of data

insert into time_table select * from time_table


3. Start query: time1 has index, time2 has no index, data 2 million

set profiling=1;
select * from time_table where time2=1111111;
select * from time_table where time1=1111111;
show profiles;

4. As a result, indexing slows down:

add indexed fields, but the query is slower.

my guess: the data is the same, the effect of the index is almost no, but because of the index, the field storage space is more, the query is slow, pure wishful thinking, hope to be able to answer one or two!

according to the data of the landlord, I also created 4 million data:

< table > < thead > < tr > < th > mysql > select * from index_test limit 5; < / th > < / tr > < / thead > < tbody > < tr > < td > id1 < / td > < td > id2 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > 11111 < / td > < td > 11111 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > 22222 < / td > < td > 22222 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > 11111 < / td > < td > 11111 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > 22222 < / td > < td > 22222 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > 11111 < / td > < td > 11111 < / td > < / tr > < / tbody > < / table >

id1 create index
execute the id2 predicate condition faster:
mysql > select * from index_test where id1=11111;
2097152 rows in set (3.00 sec)
mysql > select * from index_test where id2=11111;
2097152 rows in set (2.32 sec)
id1's profile is as follows:
+-+-+

| < table > < thead > < tr > < th > id2's profile goes like this: < / th > < / tr > < / thead > < tbody > < tr > < td > Status < / td > < td > Duration < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > starting < / td > < td > 0.000074 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > checking permissions < / td > < td > 0.000012 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Opening tables < / td > < td > 0.000025 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > init < / td > < td > 0.000032 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > System lock < / td > < td > 0.000014 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > optimizing < / td > < td > 0.000018 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > statistics < / td > < td > 0.000025 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > preparing < / td > < td > 0.000019 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > executing < / td > < td > 0.000006 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Sending data < / td > < td > 2.318096 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > end < / td > < td > 0.000020 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > query end < / td > < td > 0.000034 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > closing tables < / td > < td > 0.000022 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > freeing items < / td > < td > 0.004327 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > logging slow query < / td > < td > 0.000093 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > cleaning up < / td > < td > 0.000060 < / td > < / tr > < / tbody > < / table >

you can see that the relatively significant time consuming of id1 is that statistics,Sending data, is mainly concentrated in Sending data.
Sending data
The thread is reading and processing rows for a SELECT statement, and sending data to the client.
that is, id1=11111 spends more time reading data than id2=11111. On the id1, there is a secondary index, and there is a cost of returning to the table when the index is used. In this case, the selectivity of the index is too poor because of the small data base. In this case, the index should not be used.
if you have to use an index, avoid going back to the table and create an overlay index.
alter table index add index com_idx (id1,id2);
Test results show that id1=11111 is faster than id2=11111:
mysql > select * from index_test where id1=11111;
2097152 rows in set (1.71sec)
mysql > select * from index_test where id2=11111;
2097152 rows in set (2.57sec)
the corresponding profile is as follows:

< table > < thead > < tr > < th > id1=11111 < / th > < / tr > < / thead > < tbody > < tr > < td > Status < / td > < td > Duration < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > starting < / td > < td > 0.000149 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > checking permissions < / td > < td > 0.000084 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Opening tables < / td > < td > 0.000032 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > init < / td > < td > 0.000026 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > System lock < / td > < td > 0.000013 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > optimizing < / td > < td > 0.000013 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > statistics < / td > < td > 0.000198 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > preparing < / td > < td > 0.000019 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > executing < / td > < td > 0.000006 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Sending data < / td > < td > 1.710508 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > end < / td > < td > 0.000024 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > query end < / td > < td > 0.000015 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > closing tables < / td > < td > 0.000019 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > freeing items < / td > < td > 0.003275 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > logging slow query < / td > < td > 0.000068 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > cleaning up < / td > < td > 0.000025 < / td > < / tr > < / tbody > < / table > < table > < thead > < tr > < th > id2=11111 < / th > < / tr > < / thead > < tbody > < tr > < td > Status < / td > < td > Duration < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > starting < / td > < td > 0.000066 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > checking permissions < / td > < td > 0.000012 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Opening tables < / td > < td > 0.000020 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > init < / td > < td > 0.000024 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > System lock < / td > < td > 0.000011 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > optimizing < / td > < td > 0.000013 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > statistics < / td > < td > 0.000021 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > preparing < / td > < td > 0.000015 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > executing < / td > < td > 0.000006 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > Sending data < / td > < td > 2.566770 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > end < / td > < td > 0.000025 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > query end < / td > < td > 0.000077 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > closing tables < / td > < td > 0.000034 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > freeing items < / td > < td > 0.004227 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > logging slow query < / td > < td > 0.000093 < / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > cleaning up < / td > < td > 0.000018 < / td > < / tr > < / tbody > < / table >

8 million data half 111 and half 222. The index you built is not differentiated. The mysql optimizer will choose full table scan instead of using the index. You can explain to check the search plan


query for long values of some fields

.
show profile for query 13;
show profile for query 14;

it is recommended that you take a look at what causes the index to be long.
this is not comparable. The distribution of time1 and time2 values is not the same, resulting in longer indexed queries, probably because time1=1111111 has more records and therefore takes longer to return.
