Description Bryan Kearney 2016-10-03 19:37:55 UTC
When a locking query includes limit on 'exclusive' flag, the execution plan
can be inefficient due to missing index.

<pre>
foreman=# explain analyze SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "foreman_tasks_locks"
   INNER JOIN "foreman_tasks_tasks" ON "foreman_tasks_tasks"."id" = "foreman_tasks_locks"."task_id" WHERE (foreman_tasks_tasks.state != 'stopped')
   AND ("foreman_tasks_locks"."task_id" NOT IN ('8abb9ca3-815f-49ea-b97b-6aa505f2a29a')) AND "foreman_tasks_locks"."name" = 'task_owner' AND
   "foreman_tasks_locks"."resource_id" = 1 AND "foreman_tasks_locks"."resource_type" = 'User' AND "foreman_tasks_locks"."exclusive" = 't';
</pre>

This sql is generated when locks are getting checked when starting a new task, that requires exclusive lock.

I've also noticed we use (COUNT(*)), while we are only interested into whether any such a record exist or not, so
using `exists?` instead of `any?` in https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-tasks/blob/4868e9df20c86fb54ab182fca4e7c1dd8fd8b6d0/app/models/foreman_tasks/lock.rb#L55
would be a bit more efficient. The most important thing though is the index here.

Created from redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/16779

Comment 2 Bryan Kearney 2016-10-03 19:38:02 UTC
Upstream bug assigned to inecas

Comment 3 Bryan Kearney 2016-11-01 14:01:09 UTC
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/16779 has been resolved.

Comment 7 Lukas Pramuk 2016-12-12 14:07:06 UTC
VERIFIED.

@satellite-6.2.5-1.0.el6sat.noarch
tfm-rubygem-foreman-tasks-0.7.14.11-1.el6sat.noarch


Used following manual reproducer:

1. Install Satellite 6.2.4

1. Populate it with data:
To have enough tasks and locks I published 950 CVs, each having 35 small repositories. With this setup we have 950 CV publish tasks each having 144 exclusive locks!

2. Run SQL from comment #0:
foreman=> explain analyze SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "foreman_tasks_locks"...
...
 Total runtime: 4.029 ms
(9 rows)

3. Check CV publish task planning time 
Whole task started at: 2016-12-12 09:48:02 +0100
1st task action started at: 2016-12-12 08:49:48 UTC

Planning time = 106 seconds !!!

4. Upgrade to Satellite 6.2.5

5. Run SQL from comment #0:
foreman=> explain analyze SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "foreman_tasks_locks"...
...
 Total runtime: 0.208 ms
(9 rows)

foreman=> explain analyze SELECT COUNT('') FROM "foreman_tasks_locks"...
...
 Total runtime: 0.088 ms
(9 rows)

>>> based on altered db structures (new indices) the execution time dropped from ~ 4 sec to 0.088 sec which ~ 50 times faster

6. Check CV publish task planning time after upgrade
(this step is pending, upgrade not able to finish - import_rpms taking ages)

>>> I'll provide data once upgrade finises
