Some doubts about MongoDB's slow query log

some problems were found when querying the slow query log of online MongoDB today

question 1
the total number of tables is 1007422 but you see this output

keysExamined:4946620 docsExamined:1007409

how can keysExamined exceed the total?

question 2
query data the total number of queries output from the limit:50 application log is obviously 50, but the MongoDB log shows only 31 queries

nreturned:31 reslen:1122746

Why, is MongoDB"s log not correct?

Java Code

MongoCursor<Document> cursor = collection.find(queryDocument)
        .projection(new Document(XXX, 1))
        .limit(50)
        .iterator();
List<Document> list = new ArrayList<>();
while (cursor.hasNext()) {
    Document document = cursor.next();
    //...
    list.add(document);
}
logger.info("query count: {}", list.size());

slow log

Application log

[2018-04-18T18:38:37,446+08:00] INFO  [http-nio-8080-exec-4] impl.MongoDataSourceServiceImpl - query count: 50

Why the MongoDB log shows that 31 entries are returned, but the application log outputs 50
, and the strange thing is that there seems to be a mismatch only if the number of queries is less than 50, such as

.
2018-04-18T10:54:44.635+0000 I COMMAND  [conn307262] command foo.bar command: find ..., limit: 50, shardVersion: [ Timestamp 0|0, ObjectId("000000000000000000000000") ] } planSummary: IXSCAN { create_at: -1.0, xxx: -1.0 } keysExamined:4946661 docsExamined:1007422 fromMultiPlanner:1 replanned:1 cursorExhausted:1 keyUpdates:0 writeConflicts:0 numYields:87908 nreturned:14 reslen:136050 locks:{ Global: { acquireCount: { r: 175818 } }, Database: { acquireCount: { r: 87909 }, acquireWaitCount: { r: 6 }, timeAcquiringMicros: { r: 148774 } }, Collection: { acquireCount: { r: 87909 } } } protocol:op_command 967269ms

there will be inconsistencies only if 50 items are found out, for example, the following one is inconsistent

2018-04-18T11:32:45.426+0000 I COMMAND  [conn308123] command foo.bar command: find ..., limit: 50, shardVersion: [ Timestamp 0|0, ObjectId("000000000000000000000000") ] } planSummary: IXSCAN { xxx: -1.0, xxx: -1.0, xxx: -1.0, xxx: -1.0 } cursorid:155252471899 keysExamined:2770867 docsExamined:395789 keyUpdates:0 writeConflicts:0 numYields:24185 nreturned:12 reslen:1116144 locks:{ Global: { acquireCount: { r: 48372 } }, Database: { acquireCount: { r: 24186 } }, Collection: { acquireCount: { r: 24186 } } } protocol:op_command 154088ms
][2018-04-18T19:32:49,766+08:00] INFO  [http-nio-8080-exec-4] impl.MongoDataSourceServiceImpl - query count: 50

but there are situations where MongoDB logs and applications are both 50, so people don"t know what"s going on

.

add:
in the case of mismatch, it seems that there will be a gap of 3-4 seconds between the MongoDB and the application log

question one
may be the index on the array, that is, Multikey Index. This is normal. There are as many key as there are elements in an array of documents.

question 2
if there are only 31 eligible items, isn't that 31?


the cause of question 2 is known

Application log

[2018-04-20T16:30:12,517+08:00] INFO  [extractScheduler-1] impl.MongoDataSourceServiceImpl - query count 23

MongoDB log

2018-04-20T08:30:07.988+0000 I COMMAND  [conn346778] command foo.bar command: find ..., limit: 50, ... keysExamined:14417 docsExamined:7725 ... nreturned:16 reslen:1284323 ...
2018-04-20T08:30:12.445+0000 I COMMAND  [conn346778] command foo.bar command: getMore { getMore: 160602735017, collection: "bar" } ... keysExamined:158029 docsExamined:40333 nreturned:7 reslen:962387 ...

23 = 7 + 16

MongoDB is divided into two steps, while getMore may query quickly (less than 100ms) without slow log, which leads to misunderstanding
