PostgreSQL BRIN索引的pages_per_range选项优化与内核代码优化思考
背景
BRIN是PostgreSQL 9.5新增的块级索引接口,存储了被索引字段在块级别的边界值(最大值、最小值)以及其他统计信息。
当需要对某个字段进行检索时,需要扫描整个BRIN索引(这个是BRIN索引内核层面将来值得优化的点)。然后跳过不符合条件的HEAP PAGE,扫描复合条件的HEAP PAGE。实现数据过滤的目的。
原理所致,对于建立BRIN索引的字段,相关性越好,BRIN索引的过滤性就越好。
BRIN同时还支持多种类型、多列字段等。
1、多列
2、单列
3、空间数据类型
如果你还对BRIN不了解,可以阅读我写过的一些案例文章。

BRIN索引支持的参数pages_per_range的作用是多少个块统计一次边界值。
本文将以下面这个场景中的案例为例,讲解一下BRIN索引的pages_per_range参数的设置算法,以及BRIN索引列的优化,BRIN索引的内核优化思路等。

brin扫描原理
BRIN索引的扫描原理很简单,扫描BRIN的元数据,根据元数据和用户输入的条件进行比较,过滤不符合条件的HEAP PAGE,只扫描需要扫描的HEAP PAGE。
BRIN索引列的相关性优化
由于BRIN是块级索引,如果块的边界范围很大,或者说块与块之间的重叠度很高,那么BRIN索引的过滤性就很差。
因此BRIN仅仅适合存储与值线性相关性很好的列。
pg_stats.correlation可以观察列的线性相关性。
当然我们也可以人为的修改它的存储,改变它的线性相关性(排序存储是最简单的方法),甚至可以改变局部的线性相关性。你想知道更深层次原理的话,请参考如下文章。
《解密上帝之手 - 阿里云HDB for PostgreSQL数据库metascan特性(存储级、块级、batch级过滤与数据编排)》
多个条件扫描可以优化的点
当我们的查询条件是多个查询条件时,PostgreSQL会将多个索引的扫描合并成一个,跳过不符合条件的。这既是bitmapAnd, bitmapOr。
《PostgreSQL bitmapAnd, bitmapOr, bitmap index scan, bitmap heap scan》
但是由于目前PostgreSQL BRIN索引的扫描需要扫描整个BRIN索引,因此每个条件都需要扫描一次,那么当BRIN本身比较大时,条件一多时间就会成倍增加。
BRIN索引的扫描方式,是PostgreSQL未来内核层面可以优化的点,比如将BRIN的边界再按树组织一下,不需要每次都全扫(太过暴力)。目前PostgreSQL没有做,也许是没有人有在几百亿的单表上建单块粒度(pages_per_range=1)的BRIN索引。
实际上我后面会来给大家展示这个问题。大伙就知道我为什么要优化pages_per_range参数了。
BRIN索引参数pages_per_range选择推荐算法
pages_per_range是粒度,默认为128(表示每128个数据块统计一次边界),决定了两件事情。
1、BRIN索引的精确度。pages_per_range=1,说明边界精确到1个数据块。pages_per_range越小,精度越高,过滤性就越好(注意过滤性越好取决于列的线性相关性很好的情况下,否则就是白瞎)。
2、BRIN索引本身的大小。pages_per_range越小,BRIN索引本身就越大。BRIN越大,单次走BRIN索引扫描BRIN块的成本就越高。
那么pages_per_range到底设置为多大合适呢?
根据我的经验,311GB的表,设置为512是不错的选择。越小的表,pages_per_range设置可以越小。
311GB的表,如果pages_per_range=1,BRIN索引本身就有1.6GB这么大了。扫一下很费劲。当设置为512时,大概只有几MB。扫一下很快(虽然过滤性可能差了,但是BRIN是每个条件都要扫一次的)。

不同pages_per_range的对比
索引精度 | 单表数据量 | 单表大小 | 索引大小 | 1个条件 | 2个条件 | 3个条件 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
pages_per_range=1 | 64亿 | 311GB | 1.6GB | 8.2秒 | - | - |
pages_per_range=128 | 64亿 | 311GB | 13MB | 62毫秒 | - | 191毫秒 |
pages_per_range=256 | 64亿 | 311GB | 6MB | 33毫秒 | - | 105毫秒 |

pages_per_range=sqrt(pg_class.relpages)=6384 | 64亿 | 311GB | 300KB | 97毫秒 | 112毫秒 | 139毫秒 |
虽然精度高,但是由于目前PG BRIN索引扫描方式是全扫的,所以索引本身越大,扫描索引本身的成本占比就越高,8.2秒就是这样来的。
当精度调成512时,单个条件变成了25毫秒,而索引大小只有3MB。
开不开心,意不意外。
BRIN内核优化思考
为了降低BRIN索引本身的扫描开销,我们可以把BRIN索引的边界,再生成一颗树,通过树来扫描,提高速率,而不是全扫的方式。
那么以后我们就只需要考虑精度=1的就可以了。因为这样过滤性是最好的,同时BRIN索引本身的扫描成本又是很低的。从而使BRIN索引的效率在海量数据的情况下,大幅度提升。
小结
本文主要讲了BRIN索引的原理,扫描的原理,精度参数的原理,以及如何选择精度参数,还讲了如何通过调整内核优化BRIN索引扫描的方法来降低BRIN索引本身的成本。
好了,祝大家玩得开心。你懂PostgreSQL多少,她就能给你多少,PG是一个可玩性很强的企业级开源数据库,加油。
BRIN索引的特性,可以用来支撑万亿级别甚至更大体量的海量数据筛选,同时索引的存储、对写入造成的影响等几乎为0。绝对属于黑科技级别的特性。
