了解GaussDB性能调优之隐式转换，解决慢SQL问题
一、问题现象
某项目上一段慢SQL，相关技术人员反馈条件中用到a.systemdate >= 20240422 and a.systemdate <= 20240422 执行耗时，而把条件改为 a.systemdate = 20240422这样的点查询后，执行耗时就变快了。用户认为这两个条件是一样的，那优化器生成的执行计划也应该要一样。
二、技术背景
SQL执行计划是一个节点树，显示GaussDB执行一条SQL语句时执行的详细步骤。每一个步骤为一个数据库运算符。
使用EXPLAIN命令可以查看优化器为每个查询生成的具体执行计划。EXPLAIN给每个执行节点都输出一行，显示基本的节点类型和优化器为执行这个节点预计的开销值。影响SQL语句计划的优劣有很多方面，其中表的字段类型应使用一致的数据类型，表关联列尽量使用相同的数据类型。如果表关联列数据类型不同，数据库必须动态地转化为相同的数据类型进行比较，这种转换会带来一定的性能开销，也称为 “隐式转换”，也会影响到优化器生成的执行计划的不同。

from test1 a -- 主表
left join test2 b -- 主表的扩展表（主表左关联他的扩展表取它放在扩展表中的一些信息）
on a.systemdate = b.systemdate -- 按年分区的键
and a.custid = b.custid
and a.cbsserverid = b.cbsserverid
and a.sno = b.sno -- 两边类型改为一致，执行计划走的是参数化路径，这样就快了。
and a.busidate = b.bizdate
-- (systemdate,custid,cbsserverid,sno,busidate) 主表的联合主键
-- (systemdate,custid,cbsserverid,sno,bizdate) 扩展表的联合主键
left join cbs_comm_busitype d -- d表没有过滤条件
on a.busitype = d.busitype
WHERE
--a.systemdate >= 20240422 and a.systemdate <= 20240422
--分区键
-- actual time = 38564.818
a.systemdate = 20240422 -- 分区的键 上面一句的条件，应该跟这个条件是等价的。为什么执行时间差那么久呢？ -- actual time = 110.894
and a.fundacct = '880300015593'
and a.custid = 106931062
and a.fortuneid ='0'
order by a.systemdate ,a.sno desc
limit 10 offset 0 ) t;-
针对上面 systemdate >= 20240422 and a.systemdate <= 20240422 这个条件计划优化器估算的不准，导致执行算子NestedLoop。
-
而对于条件 a.systemdate = 20240422 这种写法，优化器的估算让它执行算子hasjoin。
-
条件的这两种写法，看起来是一样的，执行结果等价的啊，为什么GaussDB优化器解析的执行计划又不同了呢？
-
第一种条件a.systemdate >= 20240422 and a.systemdate <= 20240422下，客户提供的的执行计划如下：
注：上图可以看到优化器基于cost估算的值，让它走了Nested Loop的方式，导致最终actual time=38564.806ms。上面有一个Select Partition 1..2是由于d表没有条件，并不是只有分区键一个字段关联了，就一定会走分区剪枝的，所以走了全表扫描（要想走分区剪枝，必须得具备有剪枝的条件）。
-
第二种条件a.systemdate = 20240422 点查下的执行计划如下：
注：上图可以看到优化器基于成本估算的值，让他走了hashjoin的方式，导致最终actual time=110.894ms。
四、处理结果
把test1表字段sno 跟关联表test2表字段sno的数据类型修改为一致后测试，避免进行隐式转换，计划执行规则路径，计划执行时间由actual time=38564.806ms，提升到actual time=110.894ms。
五、总结
条件1：a.systemdate >= 20240422 and a.systemdate <= 20240422 -- actual time =38564.806ms
条件2：a.systemdate = 20240422 -- actual time = 110.894ms
上面两个条件写法虽然在逻辑上是等价的，优化器可能会认为有多个可能的结果（尽管实际上只有一个），两个条件的成本估算的值不同，走的join方式就不一样了，进一步导致执行计划的时间就有差别。
