背景
本文主要要展示的是PostgreSQL在位置信息近邻（KNN）查询方面的性能。
测试类型point，索引类型GiST。
（PostGIS同样支持KNN查询，性能和本文的测试差不多）
测试数据量大于100亿。
结果
64个并发，随机选点，单次KNN查询请求的平均响应时间为0.848毫秒。
测试环境和优化请参考
创建测试表
postgres=# create table tbl_point(id serial8, poi point);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d tbl_point
Table "benchmarksql.tbl_point"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+--------+--------------------------------------------------------
id | bigint | not null default nextval('tbl_point_id_seq'::regclass)
poi | point |
postgres=# alter sequence tbl_point_id_seq cache 10000;
ALTER SEQUENCE
生成测试数据：
point的x和y的取值范围都是-50000到50000，所以一共可以生成100亿个不同的point。
和测试数据量相符。
vi test.sql
insert into tbl_point(poi) select point(trunc(100000*(0.5-random())), trunc(100000*(0.5-random()))) from generate_series(1,10000);
使用pgbench每秒约插入233万位置信息。
pgbench -M prepared -n -r -f ./test.sql -P 1 -c 96 -j 96 -T 1100
tps = 233.018365 (including connections establishing)
tps = 233.150940 (excluding connections establishing)
数据量
postgres=# select count(*) from tbl_point;
count
------------
2532820000
(1 row)
当前表大小：
postgres=# \dt+
benchmarksql | tbl_point | table | postgres | 123 GB |
在point类型上创建GiST索引
postgres=# create index idx_tbl_point on tbl_point using gist(poi) with (buffering=on);
postgres=# \d+ tbl_point
Table "benchmarksql.tbl_point"
Column | Type | Modifiers | Storage | Stats target | Description
--------+--------+--------------------------------------------------------+---------+--------------+-------------
id | bigint | not null default nextval('tbl_point_id_seq'::regclass) | plain | |
poi | point | | plain | |
Indexes:
"idx_tbl_point" gist (poi) WITH (buffering='on')
索引大小：
\di+
benchmarksql | idx_tbl_point | index | postgres | tbl_point | 170 GB |
新建完索引后，插入性能会下降，现在每秒约插入55万条位置信息。

KNN执行计划
排序和检索都走了GiST索引。
例如，一个查询如下，扫描了16个数据块，在shared buffer命中8个，读8个块(可能在OS CACHE或直接读block dev)。
postgres=# explain (analyze,verbose,buffers,timing,costs) select *,poi <-> point(10090,10090) dist from tbl_point where poi <-> point(10090,10090) < 100 order by poi <-> point(10090,10090) limit 10;

Planning time: 0.084 ms
Execution time: 1.347 ms

KNN检索压力测试
测试在100亿地理位置数据中，postgresql 的knn查询性能。
测试脚本如下，随机生成一个point，然后查找这个point附近距离为100以内，按距离排序，取出1条。
vi test.sql
\setrandom x -50000 50000
\setrandom y -50000 50000
select * from tbl_point where poi <-> point(:x,:y) <100 order by poi <-> point(:x,:y) limit 1;
测试结果
单次请求的平均响应时间为0.848毫秒。
pgbench -M prepared -n -r -f ./test.sql -P 1 -c 64 -j 64 -T 100
transaction type: Custom query
scaling factor: 1
query mode: prepared
number of clients: 64
number of threads: 64
duration: 100 s
number of transactions actually processed: 7418337
latency average: 0.858 ms
latency stddev: 0.564 ms
tps = 74151.604194 (including connections establishing)
tps = 74184.255934 (excluding connections establishing)
statement latencies in milliseconds:
0.007518 \setrandom x -50000 50000
0.002193 \setrandom y -50000 50000
0.847847 select * from tbl_point where poi <-> point(:x,:y) <100 order by poi <-> point(:x,:y) limit 1;
因为数据量较大，内存加索引超过1TB，远远超越了内存大小，要做到0.858毫秒的响应，得益于AliFlash pci-E SSD卡的性能，单次请求平均0.01毫秒完成。队列等待0.19毫秒。

其他优化手段1
当请求的数据距离不在给予范围内时，被扫描的GiST索引PAGE会被放大，所以优化手段可以先order by limit，然后再过滤举例满足条件的。
例子
这个查询可能要跑很久很久才能出结果，并且结果可能是0记录。
explain (analyze,verbose,buffers,timing,costs) select *,poi <-> point(10090,10090000) dist from tbl_point where poi <-> point(10090,10090000) < 100 order by poi <-> point(10090,10090000) limit 10;

PostGIS也是这么玩的：
digoal=# select * from (select *,ST_Distance(jwd, ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(120.19 30.26)', 4326), 2163)) AS dist from cust_jw order by jwd <-> ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(120.19 30.26)', 4326), 2163) limit 1000) t where dist<15000;

其他优化手段2
更小气的玩法如下，这是为节约资源优化到极致的方法，使用游标解决以上问题，最多多一个PAGE的扫描。
digoal=# do language plpgsql $$
declare
v_rec record;
v_limit int := 1000;
begin
set enable_seqscan=off; -- 强制索引, 因为扫描行数够就退出.
for v_rec in select *,ST_Distance(jwd, ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(120.19 30.26)', 4326), 2163)) AS dist from cust_jw order by jwd <-> ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(120.19 30.26)', 4326), 2163) loop
if v_limit <=0 then
raise notice '已经取足数据';
return;
end if;
if v_rec.dist > 20000 then
raise notice '满足条件的点已输出完毕';
return;
else
raise notice 'do someting, v_rec:%', v_rec;
end if;
v_limit := v_limit -1;
end loop;
end;
$$;
