Hi,
I´m getting an out of memory error running the following query over 6
tables (the *BASE* tables have over 1 million rows each) on Postgresql
9.1. The machine has 4GB RAM:
SELECT *
FROM dtng."Z_BASE" zb
LEFT JOIN dtng."Z_BASE_COUNTRY" zbc ON zb."ISIN" = zbc."ISIN"
LEFT JOIN dtng."PRODUCT_TYPES" pt ON zb."ID_PRODUCT_TYPE" =
pt."ID_PRODUCT_TYPE"
JOIN voola.export_product_groups epg ON pt."ID_PRODUCT_GROUP" =
epg.id_product_group
FULL OUTER JOIN warrants."W_BASE" wb ON zb."ISIN" = wb."ISIN"
LEFT JOIN warrants."W_BASE_COUNTRY" wbc ON wb."ISIN" = wbc."ISIN"
WHERE coalesce(zbc."ID_COUNTRY", wbc."ID_COUNTRY") = 'DE'
This is the query plan:
Hash Right Join (cost=1498106.22..2102918.77 rows=7487 width=2708)
Hash Cond: ((wbc."ISIN")::bpchar = (wb."ISIN")::bpchar)
Filter: ((COALESCE(zbc."ID_COUNTRY", wbc."ID_COUNTRY"))::bpchar =
'DE'::bpchar)
-> Seq Scan on "W_BASE_COUNTRY" wbc (cost=0.00..45668.41 rows=1497341
width=160)
-> Hash (cost=1015864.28..1015864.28 rows=1474955 width=2548)

Hash Cond: ((zbc."ISIN")::bpchar = (zb."ISIN")::bpchar)
-> Seq Scan on "Z_BASE_COUNTRY" zbc (cost=0.00..47831.60 rows=1614860
width=106)

-> Hash (cost=631.12..631.12 rows=2506 width=858)
-> Hash Join (cost=2.64..631.12 rows=2506 width=858)
Hash Cond: (pt."ID_PRODUCT_GROUP" = (epg.id_product_group)::bpchar)
-> Seq Scan on "PRODUCT_TYPES" pt (cost=0.00..573.03 rows=8103 width=853)
-> Hash (cost=1.73..1.73 rows=73 width=5)
-> Seq Scan on export_product_groups epg (cost=0.00..1.73 rows=73 width=5)
-> Hash (cost=93399.55..93399.55 rows=1474955 width=207)
-> Seq Scan on "W_BASE" wb (cost=0.00..93399.55 rows=1474955 width=207)
I tried reducing work_mem from 8MB to 64kB to force usage of temporary
files for the hash joins instead of working memory, as written in
chapter 18.4.1 of the documentation. But that didn´t help.
I know that the query is poorly written and already rewrote it to use
less memory. My question is if/how it is possible to prevent the out of
memory error at the price of speed (disk usage).I already searched the
internet for an answer but without luck...
Thanks a lot,
Jan
