I'm planning on creating a view using this SQL SELECT, but the explain for it shows it's using temporary and using filesort. I can't figure out what indices I need in order to fix this problem. Mostly, I'm wondering why it's using filesort instead of using an index to sort.

Table bn_ms_gt_generaltransaction has 7 million records
Table bn_pd_mp_masterprofile has few hundred records
Table bn_pd_sc_scheme also has few hundred records

Here are create table statements:

The second view uses the first.

Output from explain:


    id          select_type     table           type            possible_keys           key         key_len         ref         rows            Extra

Now, the top derived table shows using temporary; using filesort.
Even creating index doesn't help. I tried to create index on group by for loose index but doesn't work. AM I missing something?
I have explored about it and found many workarounds but none fits my example. Some suggest to do aggregation in subquery before join which is not possible as MySQL doesn't allow subquery in FROM clause of VIEW.
Creating another view doesn't work as I need to filter records before summation.
So, can someone help me with fixing the issue.

  • Confusion: Where is PPC_PRCGCODE defined ? Commented Jan 6, 2015 at 21:01
  • @RolandoMySQLDBA I have updated the product table with missing column. Secondly, Even if I execute the above two queries by making first as subquery of the second. Still I can see temporary/filesort. So, Can we remove that from it because I have rewritten the view as single query?

OBSERVATION #1

The MySQL Documentation gives you the Restrictions on Views

  • It is not possible to create an index on a view.
  • Indexes can be used for views processed using the merge algorithm. However, a view that is processed with the temptable algorithm is unable to take advantage of indexes on its underlying tables (although indexes can be used during generation of the temporary tables).

Subqueries cannot be used in the FROM clause of a view.

Therefore

  • The result set of a View would be some temp table used for row-by-row retrieval
  • There is no existing mechanism to index the result set coming from a view

Creating indexes only help the underlying base tables within the JOIN a the View, not the View itself.

OBSERVATION #2

You mentioned this

Some suggest to do aggregation in subquery before join which is not possible as MySQL doesn't allow subquery in FROM clause.

That's not true. I have a post in StackOverflow (Fetching a Single Row from Join Table) that clearly demonstrates doing an aggregation in a subquery followed by all kinds of JOINs to that subquery.

  • Thanks for your reply. Sorry I didn't mention that its about Views i.e. we cannot use subquery in FROM clause of views. I am updating question with correction and PPC_PRCGCODE column.
