Oracle预估的基数算法

SQL> create table t as select * from dba_objects;  

  

Table created.  

  

SQL> create index idx_t on t(object_id);  

  

Index created.  





SQL> BEGIN  

  2    DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS(ownname          => 'TEST',  

  3                                  tabname          => 'T',  

  4                                  estimate_percent => 100,  

  5                                  method_opt       => 'for all columns size auto',  

  6                                  degree           => DBMS_STATS.AUTO_DEGREE,  

  7                                  cascade          => TRUE);  

  8  END;

SQL> alter session set optimizer_features_enable='9.2.0';



Session altered.





SQL> explain plan for  select owner from t where object_id<1000;  



Explained.



SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display());

那么这个958 Oracle是怎么估算的呢？

Oracle预估的基数等于有效选择性*(num_rows-num_nulls)



其中 有效选择性 ，< 的有效选择性算法为:



(limit-low_value)/(high_value-low_value)









set linesize 200

SQL> select b.num_rows,

       a.num_distinct,

       a.num_nulls,

       utl_raw.cast_to_number(high_value) high_value,

       utl_raw.cast_to_number(low_value) low_value,

       (b.num_rows - a.num_nulls) "NUM_ROWS-NUM_NULLS",

       utl_raw.cast_to_number(high_value) -

       utl_raw.cast_to_number(low_value) "HIGH_VALUE-LOW_VALUE"

  from dba_tab_col_statistics a, dba_tables b

 where a.owner = b.owner

   and a.table_name = b.table_name

   and a.owner = 'TEST'

   and a.table_name = upper('T')

   and a.column_name = 'OBJECT_ID';  2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9   10   11   12   13   14  



  NUM_ROWS NUM_DISTINCT  NUM_NULLS HIGH_VALUE  LOW_VALUE NUM_ROWS-NUM_NULLS HIGH_VALUE-LOW_VALUE

---------- ------------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ------------------ --------------------

     73964	  73964 	 0	77085	       2	      73964		   77083





那么估算为:

SQL> 

select ceil((1000-2)/77083*73964) from dual;SQL> 



CEIL((1000-2)/77083*73964)

--------------------------

		       958



Oracle 就是根据这个算法的
