   How the planner determines the cardinality of <TT

>tenk1</TT

   is covered in <A
HREF="planner-stats.html"
>Section 14.2</A

   <TT

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT relpages, reltuples FROM pg_class WHERE relname = 'tenk1';

 relpages | reltuples
----------+-----------
      358 |     10000</PRE
><P>

    These numbers are current as of the last <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>VACUUM</TT
> or
    <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>ANALYZE</TT
> on the table.  The planner then fetches the
    actual current number of pages in the table (this is a cheap operation,
    not requiring a table scan).  If that is different from
    <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>relpages</TT
> then
    <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>reltuples</TT
> is scaled accordingly to
    arrive at a current number-of-rows estimate.  In the example above, the value of
    <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>relpages</TT
> is up-to-date so the rows estimate is
    the same as <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>reltuples</TT

  </P
><P
>   Let's move on to an example with a range condition in its
   <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 WHERE unique1 &lt; 1000;

         Index Cond: (unique1 &lt; 1000)</PRE
><P>

   The planner examines the <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT
> clause condition
   and looks up the selectivity function for the operator
   <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>&lt;</TT
> in <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>pg_operator</TT

   This is held in the column <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>oprrest</TT

   and the entry in this case is <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>scalarltsel</CODE

   The <CODE

   <TT

   <TT

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT histogram_bounds FROM pg_stats
WHERE tablename='tenk1' AND attname='unique1';

                   histogram_bounds
------------------------------------------------------
 {0,993,1997,3050,4040,5036,5957,7057,8029,9016,9995}</PRE
><P>

   Next the fraction of the histogram occupied by <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"&lt; 1000"</SPAN
>
   is worked out. This is the selectivity. The histogram divides the range
   into equal frequency buckets, so all we have to do is locate the bucket
   that our value is in and count <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>part</I
></SPAN
> of it and
   <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>all</I
></SPAN
> of the ones before. The value 1000 is clearly in
   the second bucket (993-1997).  Assuming a linear distribution of
   values inside each bucket, we can calculate the selectivity as:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = (1 + (1000 - bucket[2].min)/(bucket[2].max - bucket[2].min))/num_buckets
            = (1 + (1000 - 993)/(1997 - 993))/10
            = 0.100697</PRE
><P>

   that is, one whole bucket plus a linear fraction of the second, divided by
   the number of buckets. The estimated number of rows can now be calculated as
   the product of the selectivity and the cardinality of
   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>tenk1</TT
>:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>rows = rel_cardinality * selectivity
     = 10000 * 0.100697
     = 1007  (rounding off)</PRE
><P>
  </P
><P
>   Next let's consider an example with an equality condition in its
   <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT
> clause:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 WHERE stringu1 = 'CRAAAA';

                        QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on tenk1  (cost=0.00..483.00 rows=30 width=244)
   Filter: (stringu1 = 'CRAAAA'::name)</PRE
><P>

   Again the planner examines the <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT
> clause condition
   and looks up the selectivity function for <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>=</TT
>, which is
   <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>eqsel</CODE
>.  For equality estimation the histogram is
   not useful; instead the list of <I
CLASS="FIRSTTERM"
>most
   common values</I
> (<ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM
>s) is used to determine the
   selectivity. Let's have a look at the MCVs, with some additional columns
   that will be useful later:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT null_frac, n_distinct, most_common_vals, most_common_freqs FROM pg_stats
WHERE tablename='tenk1' AND attname='stringu1';

null_frac         | 0
n_distinct        | 676
most_common_vals  | {EJAAAA,BBAAAA,CRAAAA,FCAAAA,FEAAAA,GSAAAA,JOAAAA,MCAAAA,NAAAAA,WGAAAA}
most_common_freqs | {0.00333333,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003,0.003}&#13;</PRE
><P>

   Since <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>CRAAAA</TT
> appears in the list of MCVs, the selectivity is
   merely the corresponding entry in the list of most common frequencies
   (<ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCF</ACRONYM
>s):

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = mcf[3]
            = 0.003</PRE
><P>

   As before, the estimated number of rows is just the product of this with the
   cardinality of <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>tenk1</TT
>:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>rows = 10000 * 0.003
     = 30</PRE
><P>
  </P
><P
>   Now consider the same query, but with a constant that is not in the
   <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM
> list:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 WHERE stringu1 = 'xxx';

                        QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on tenk1  (cost=0.00..483.00 rows=15 width=244)
   Filter: (stringu1 = 'xxx'::name)</PRE
><P>

   This is quite a different problem: how to estimate the selectivity when the
   value is <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>not</I
></SPAN
> in the <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM
> list.
   The approach is to use the fact that the value is not in the list,
   combined with the knowledge of the frequencies for all of the
   <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM
>s:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = (1 - sum(mvf))/(num_distinct - num_mcv)
            = (1 - (0.00333333 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 +
                    0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003))/(676 - 10)
            = 0.0014559</PRE
><P>

   That is, add up all the frequencies for the <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM
>s and
   subtract them from one, then
   divide by the number of <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>other</I
></SPAN
> distinct values.
   This amounts to assuming that the fraction of the column that is not any
   of the MCVs is evenly distributed among all the other distinct values.
   Notice that there are no null values so we don't have to worry about those
   (otherwise we'd subtract the null fraction from the numerator as well).
   The estimated number of rows is then calculated as usual:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>rows = 10000 * 0.0014559
     = 15  (rounding off)</PRE
><P>
  </P
><P
>   The previous example with <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>unique1 &lt; 1000</TT
> was an
   oversimplification of what <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>scalarltsel</CODE
> really does;
   now that we have seen an example of the use of MCVs, we can fill in some
   more detail.  The example was correct as far as it went, because since
   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>unique1</TT
> is a unique column it has no MCVs (obviously, no
   value is any more common than any other value).  For a non-unique
   column, there will normally be both a histogram and an MCV list, and
   <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>the histogram does not include the portion of the column
   population represented by the MCVs</I
></SPAN
>.  We do things this way because
   it allows more precise estimation.  In this situation
   <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>scalarltsel</CODE
> directly applies the condition (e.g.,
   <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"&lt; 1000"</SPAN
>) to each value of the MCV list, and adds up the
   frequencies of the MCVs for which the condition is true.  This gives
   an exact estimate of the selectivity within the portion of the table
   that is MCVs.  The histogram is then used in the same way as above
   to estimate the selectivity in the portion of the table that is not
   MCVs, and then the two numbers are combined to estimate the overall
   selectivity.  For example, consider

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 WHERE stringu1 &lt; 'IAAAAA';

                         QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on tenk1  (cost=0.00..483.00 rows=3077 width=244)
   Filter: (stringu1 &lt; 'IAAAAA'::name)</PRE
><P>

   We already saw the MCV information for <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>stringu1</TT
>,
   and here is its histogram:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT histogram_bounds FROM pg_stats
WHERE tablename='tenk1' AND attname='stringu1';

                                histogram_bounds
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 {AAAAAA,CQAAAA,FRAAAA,IBAAAA,KRAAAA,NFAAAA,PSAAAA,SGAAAA,VAAAAA,XLAAAA,ZZAAAA}</PRE
><P>

   Checking the MCV list, we find that the condition <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>stringu1 &lt;
   'IAAAAA'</TT
> is satisfied by the first six entries and not the last four,
   so the selectivity within the MCV part of the population is

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = sum(relevant mvfs)
            = 0.00333333 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003 + 0.003
            = 0.01833333</PRE
><P>

   Summing all the MCFs also tells us that the total fraction of the
   population represented by MCVs is 0.03033333, and therefore the
   fraction represented by the histogram is 0.96966667 (again, there
   are no nulls, else we'd have to exclude them here).  We can see
   that the value <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>IAAAAA</TT
> falls nearly at the end of the
   third histogram bucket.  Using some rather cheesy assumptions
   about the frequency of different characters, the planner arrives
   at the estimate 0.298387 for the portion of the histogram population
   that is less than <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>IAAAAA</TT
>.  We then combine the estimates
   for the MCV and non-MCV populations:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = mcv_selectivity + histogram_selectivity * histogram_fraction
            = 0.01833333 + 0.298387 * 0.96966667
            = 0.307669

rows        = 10000 * 0.307669
            = 3077  (rounding off)</PRE
><P>

   In this particular example, the correction from the MCV list is fairly
   small, because the column distribution is actually quite flat (the
   statistics showing these particular values as being more common than
   others are mostly due to sampling error).  In a more typical case where
   some values are significantly more common than others, this complicated
   process gives a useful improvement in accuracy because the selectivity
   for the most common values is found exactly.
  </P
><P
>   Now let's consider a case with more than one
   condition in the <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT
> clause:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 WHERE unique1 &lt; 1000 AND stringu1 = 'xxx';

                                   QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Bitmap Heap Scan on tenk1  (cost=23.80..396.91 rows=1 width=244)
   Recheck Cond: (unique1 &lt; 1000)
   Filter: (stringu1 = 'xxx'::name)
   -&gt;  Bitmap Index Scan on tenk1_unique1  (cost=0.00..23.80 rows=1007 width=0)
         Index Cond: (unique1 &lt; 1000)</PRE
><P>

   The planner assumes that the two conditions are independent, so that
   the individual selectivities of the clauses can be multiplied together:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = selectivity(unique1 &lt; 1000) * selectivity(stringu1 = 'xxx')
            = 0.100697 * 0.0014559
            = 0.0001466

rows        = 10000 * 0.0001466
            = 1  (rounding off)</PRE
><P>

   Notice that the number of rows estimated to be returned from the bitmap
   index scan reflects only the condition used with the index; this is
   important since it affects the cost estimate for the subsequent heap
   fetches.
  </P
><P
>   Finally we will examine a query that involves a join:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tenk1 t1, tenk2 t2
WHERE t1.unique1 &lt; 50 AND t1.unique2 = t2.unique2;

                                      QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Nested Loop  (cost=4.64..456.23 rows=50 width=488)
   -&gt;  Bitmap Heap Scan on tenk1 t1  (cost=4.64..142.17 rows=50 width=244)
         Recheck Cond: (unique1 &lt; 50)
         -&gt;  Bitmap Index Scan on tenk1_unique1  (cost=0.00..4.63 rows=50 width=0)
               Index Cond: (unique1 &lt; 50)
   -&gt;  Index Scan using tenk2_unique2 on tenk2 t2  (cost=0.00..6.27 rows=1 width=244)
         Index Cond: (unique2 = t1.unique2)</PRE
><P>

   The restriction on <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>tenk1</TT
>,
   <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>unique1 &lt; 50</TT
>,
   is evaluated before the nested-loop join.
   This is handled analogously to the previous range example.  This time the
   value 50 falls into the first bucket of the
   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>unique1</TT
> histogram:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = (0 + (50 - bucket[1].min)/(bucket[1].max - bucket[1].min))/num_buckets
            = (0 + (50 - 0)/(993 - 0))/10
            = 0.005035

rows        = 10000 * 0.005035
            = 50  (rounding off)</PRE
><P>

   The restriction for the join is <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>t2.unique2 = t1.unique2</TT
>.
   The operator is just
   our familiar <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>=</TT
>, however the selectivity function is
   obtained from the <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>oprjoin</TT
> column of
   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>pg_operator</TT
>, and is <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>eqjoinsel</CODE
>.
   <CODE

>eqjoinsel</CODE

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT tablename, null_frac,n_distinct, most_common_vals FROM pg_stats
WHERE tablename IN ('tenk1', 'tenk2') AND attname='unique2';

tablename  | null_frac | n_distinct | most_common_vals
-----------+-----------+------------+------------------
 tenk1     |         0 |         -1 |
 tenk2     |         0 |         -1 |</PRE
><P>

   In this case there is no <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>MCV</ACRONYM

   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTFIELD"
>unique2</TT
> because all the values appear to be
   unique, so we use an algorithm that relies only on the number of

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>selectivity = (1 - null_frac1) * (1 - null_frac2) * min(1/num_distinct1, 1/num_distinct2)
            = (1 - 0) * (1 - 0) / max(10000, 10000)
            = 0.0001</PRE
><P>

   This is, subtract the null fraction from one for each of the relations,
   and divide by the maximum of the numbers of distinct values.
   The number of rows
   that the join is likely to emit is calculated as the cardinality of the
   Cartesian product of the two inputs, multiplied by the
   selectivity:

</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>rows = (outer_cardinality * inner_cardinality) * selectivity
     = (50 * 10000) * 0.0001
     = 50</PRE
><P>
  </P
><P
>   Had there been MCV lists for the two columns,
   <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>eqjoinsel</CODE
> would have used direct comparison of the MCV
   lists to determine the join selectivity within the part of the column
   populations represented by the MCVs.  The estimate for the remainder of the
   populations follows the same approach shown here.
  </P
><P
>   Notice that we showed <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>inner_cardinality</TT
> as 10000, that is,
   the unmodified size of <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>tenk2</TT
>.  It might appear from
   inspection of the <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>EXPLAIN</TT
> output that the estimate of
   join rows comes from 50 * 1, that is, the number of outer rows times
   the estimated number of rows obtained by each inner index scan on
   <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>tenk2</TT
>.  But this is not the case: the join relation size
   is estimated before any particular join plan has been considered.  If
   everything is working well then the two ways of estimating the join
   size will produce about the same answer, but due to roundoff error and
   other factors they sometimes diverge significantly.
  </P

>   For those interested in further details, estimation of the size of
   a table (before any <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>WHERE</TT
> clauses) is done in
   <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>src/backend/optimizer/util/plancat.c</TT
>. The generic
   logic for clause selectivities is in
   <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>src/backend/optimizer/path/clausesel.c</TT

   operator-specific selectivity functions are mostly found
   in <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
