全表扫描是
Oracle访问
数据库表是较为常见的访问方式之一。很多朋友一看到
SQL语 句执行计划中的全表扫描,就要考虑对其进行修理一番。全表扫描的存在,的确存在可能优化的余地。但事实上很多时候全表扫描也并非是最低效的,完全要看不同 的情形与场合,任一方式都是有利有弊的,也就是具体情况要具体分析。本文描述了什么是全表扫描以及何时发生全表扫描,何时全表扫描才低效。

1、什么是全表扫描?
全表扫描就是扫表表中所有的行,实际上是扫描表中所有的数据块,因为Oracle中最小的存储单位是Oracle block。
扫描所有的数据块就包括高水位线以内的数据块,即使是空数据块在没有被释放的情形下也会被扫描而导致I/O增加。
在全表扫描期间,通常情况下,表上这些相邻的数据块被按顺序(sequentially)的方式访问以使得一次I/O可以读取多个数据块。
一次读取更多的数据块有助于全表扫描使用更少的I/O,对于可读取的数据块被限制于参数DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT。
2、何时发生全表扫描?
a、表上的索引失效或无法被使用的情形(如对谓词使用函数、计算、NULL值、不等运算符、类型转换)
b、查询条件返回了整个表的大部分数据
c、使用了并行方式访问表
d、使用full 提示
e、统计信息缺失时使得Oracle认为全表扫描比索引扫描更高效
f、表上的数据块小于DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT值的情形可能产生全表扫描
3、演示全表扫描的情形
a、准备演示环境
scott@ORA11G> select * from v$version where rownum<2;
BANNER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
--创建表t
scott@ORA11G> CREATE TABLE t
2 AS
3 SELECT rownum AS n, rpad('*',100,'*') AS pad
4 FROM dual
5 CONNECT BY level <= 1000;
Table created.
--添加索引
scott@ORA11G> create unique index t_pk on t(n);
Index created.
scott@ORA11G> alter table t add constraint t_pk primary key(n) using index t_pk;
Table altered.
--收集统计信息
scott@ORA11G> execute dbms_stats.gather_table_stats('SCOTT','T',cascade=>true);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
scott@ORA11G> set autot trace exp;
scott@ORA11G> select count(*) from t; --->count(*)的时候使用了索引快速扫描

scott@ORA11G> set autot off;
scott@ORA11G> alter table t move; --->进行move table
Table altered.
-->move 之后索引失效,如下所示
scott@ORA11G> @idx_info

b、索引失效导致全表扫描
scott@ORA11G> set autot trace exp;
scott@ORA11G> select count(*) from t;

Enter value for table_name: t

c、返回了整个表的大部分数据使用了全表扫描

- dynamic sampling used for this statement (level=2)
--上面的执行计划使用了全表扫描,而且提示使用了动态采样,也就是缺乏统计信息
--表上的数据块小于DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT值的情形可能产生全表扫描的情形不演示
