How to optimize this SQL query?
In case you have your own slow SQL query, you can optimize it automatically here.
For the query above, the following recommendations will be helpful as part of the SQL tuning process.
You'll find 3 sections below:
- Description of the steps you can take to speed up the query.
- The optimal indexes for this query, which you can copy and create in your database.
- An automatically re-written query you can copy and execute in your database.
The optimization process and recommendations:
- Explicitly ORDER BY After GROUP BY (modified query below): By default, the database sorts all 'GROUP BY col1, col2, ...' queries as if you specified 'ORDER BY col1, col2, ...' in the query as well. If a query includes a GROUP BY clause but you want to avoid the overhead of sorting the result, you can suppress sorting by specifying 'ORDER BY NULL'.
- Prefer Sorting/Grouping By The First Table In Join Order (modified query below): The database can use indexes more efficiently when sorting and grouping using columns from the first table in the join order. The first table is determined based on the prediction of the the optimal first table, and is not necessarily the first table shown in the FROM clause.
The optimized query:
SELECT
galeries.galeries_id,
galeries_title,
photos.photos_id,
photos.photos_gal_id,
photos.photos_link
FROM
galeries
INNER JOIN
photos
ON galeries.galeries_id = photos.photos_gal_id
GROUP BY
galeries.galeries_id
ORDER BY
NULL
