mysql explain的extra
导读
extra主要有是那种情况：Using index、Using filesort、Using temporary、Using where
Using where无需多说，就是使用了where筛选条件。
数据准备：
CREATE TABLE `t_blog` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `title` varchar(50) default NULL, `typeId` int(11) default NULL, `a` int(11) default '0', PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `index_1` (`title`,`typeId`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
Using index
表示在查询中使用了覆盖索引，避免了扫描表的数据行。
mysql> EXPLAIN select title from t_blog;
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | index | NULL | index_1 | 158 | NULL | 7 | Using index |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------------+
1 row in set
已知title字段是index_1索引的一部分，上条sql只查询title字段，只会扫描索引文件而不会扫描表的所有数据行，在extra列中，出现了Using index。
mysql> EXPLAIN select * from t_blog;
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 7 | |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+-------+
1 row in set
上条语句中，除了查询已经加了索引的字段，还查询了没有加索引的字段【a】，导致扫描了表的数据行，因此，extra列中没有出现Using index。
当只出现Using index，没出现Using where时，表示索引用于读取数据，以第一条sql为例。
当Using index 和 Using where同时出现时，表示索引用于查找动作，例如：
mysql> EXPLAIN select title from t_blog where title = 'java';
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+---------+---------+-------+------+--------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+---------+---------+-------+------+--------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | ref | index_1 | index_1 | 153 | const | 1 | Using where; Using index |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+---------+---------+-------+------+--------------------------+
1 row in set
Using filesort
Using filesort通常出现在order by，当试图对一个不是索引的字段进行排序时，mysql就会自动对该字段进行排序，这个过程就称为“文件排序”
mysql> EXPLAIN select * from t_blog order by title;
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | index | NULL | index_1 | 158 | NULL | 7 | |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+-------+
1 row in set
已知title是index_1索引中的第一列索引，所以单独使用时索引生效，在排序时根据索引排序，不会产生文件排序。
mysql> EXPLAIN select * from t_blog order by typeId;
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 7 | Using filesort |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
1 row in set
虽然typeId是index_1索引的第二列，但由于缺失第一列，所以索引失效。在排序时无法根据索引排序，故mysql会自动进行排序，产生文件排序。
mysql> EXPLAIN select * from t_blog order by a;
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 7 | Using filesort |
+----+-------------+--------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------------+
1 row in set
字段a上没有任何索引，所以在排序时无法根据索引排序，因此产生文件排序。
Using filesort出现的情况：排序时无法根据索引进行排序，mysql优化器只能自己进行排序，这种情况会大大降低性能，不可取。
Using temporary
表示在查询过程中产生了临时表用于保存中间结果。mysql在对查询结果进行排序时会使用临时表，常见于group by。
group by的实质是先排序后分组，同order by一样，group by和索引息息相关。
试图对一个没有索引的字段进行分组，会产生临时表：
mysql> EXPLAIN select title from t_blog group by typeId;
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | t_blog | index | NULL | index_1 | 158 | NULL | 7 | Using index; Using temporary; Using filesort |
+----+-------------+--------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+------+----------------------------------------------+
1 row in set
对一个有索引的字段进行分组就不会产生临时表：
mysql> explain select * from t_blog b left join t_type t on b.typeId = t.id group by b.id order by b.id;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | b | index | NULL | PRIMARY | 4 | NULL | 7 | |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | blog.b.typeId | 1 | |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-------+
2 rows in set
当order by子句和group by子句的字段不同时就会产生临时表：
mysql> explain select * from t_blog b left join t_type t on b.typeId = t.id group by b.id order by b.title;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-----------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-----------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | b | index | NULL | index_1 | 158 | NULL | 7 | Using temporary |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | blog.b.typeId | 1 | |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+-----------------+
2 rows in set
当时用left join时，若order by子句和group by子句都来自于从表时会产生临时表：
mysql> explain select * from t_blog b left join t_type t on b.typeId = t.id group by t.id order by t.id;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | b | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 7 | Using temporary; Using filesort |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | blog.b.typeId | 1 | |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
2 rows in set
mysql> explain select * from t_blog b left join t_type t on b.typeId = t.id group by t.id order by t.name;
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | b | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 7 | Using temporary; Using filesort |
| 1 | SIMPLE | t | eq_ref | PRIMARY | PRIMARY | 4 | blog.b.typeId | 1 | |
+----+-------------+-------+--------+---------------+---------+---------+---------------+------+---------------------------------+
2 rows in set
出现Using temporary意味着产生了临时表存储中间结果并且最后删掉了该临时表，这个过程很消耗性能。
