mysql - 如何优化 MySQL 的 ORDER BY RAND() 函数？

Question

我想优化我的查询，因此我查看 mysql-slow.log。

我的大多数慢速查询都包含 ORDER BY RAND()。我找不到真正的解决方案来解决这个问题。有一个可能的解决方案:MySQLPerformanceBlog但我认为这还不够。在优化不佳(或频繁更新、用户管理)的表上，它不起作用，或者我需要运行两个或多个查询才能选择 PHP 生成的随机行。

这个问题有解决办法吗？

一个虚拟示例:

SELECT  accomodation.ac_id,
        accomodation.ac_status,
        accomodation.ac_name,
        accomodation.ac_status,
        accomodation.ac_images
FROM    accomodation, accomodation_category
WHERE   accomodation.ac_status != 'draft'
        AND accomodation.ac_category = accomodation_category.acat_id
        AND accomodation_category.acat_slug != 'vendeglatohely'
        AND ac_images != 'b:0;'
ORDER BY
        RAND()
LIMIT 1

Answer 1

试试这个:

SELECT  *
FROM    (
        SELECT  @cnt := COUNT(*) + 1,
                @lim := 10
        FROM    t_random
        ) vars
STRAIGHT_JOIN
        (
        SELECT  r.*,
                @lim := @lim - 1
        FROM    t_random r
        WHERE   (@cnt := @cnt - 1)
                AND RAND(20090301) < @lim / @cnt
        ) i

这在 MyISAM 上尤其有效(因为 COUNT(*) 是即时的)，但即使在 InnoDB 中，它也是 10比 ORDER BY RAND() 效率高 倍。

这里的主要思想是我们不排序，而是保留两个变量并计算当前步骤中要选择的行的运行概率。

更新:

如果您只需要选择一个随机记录，请尝试以下操作:

SELECT  aco.*
FROM    (
        SELECT  minid + FLOOR((maxid - minid) * RAND()) AS randid
        FROM    (
                SELECT  MAX(ac_id) AS maxid, MIN(ac_id) AS minid
                FROM    accomodation
                ) q
        ) q2
JOIN    accomodation aco
ON      aco.ac_id =
        COALESCE
        (
        (
        SELECT  accomodation.ac_id
        FROM    accomodation
        WHERE   ac_id > randid
                AND ac_status != 'draft'
                AND ac_images != 'b:0;'
                AND NOT EXISTS
                (
                SELECT  NULL
                FROM    accomodation_category
                WHERE   acat_id = ac_category
                        AND acat_slug = 'vendeglatohely'
                )
        ORDER BY
                ac_id
        LIMIT   1
        ),
        (
        SELECT  accomodation.ac_id
        FROM    accomodation
        WHERE   ac_status != 'draft'
                AND ac_images != 'b:0;'
                AND NOT EXISTS
                (
                SELECT  NULL
                FROM    accomodation_category
                WHERE   acat_id = ac_category
                        AND acat_slug = 'vendeglatohely'
                )
        ORDER BY
                ac_id
        LIMIT   1
        )
        )

这假设您的 ac_id 分布或多或少均匀。
