Hey all!
Is there a better way to increase or decrease the value of an integer
than doing something like:
UPDATE the_table SET the_int = the_int + 1 WHERE the_id = 123 ;
No.
We seem to be getting a lot of deadlocks using this method under heavy
load. Just wondering if we should be doing something different.
You can't get deadlocks with that - it only references one table.
What is the purpose of this query - how are you using it?
