#3883 closed enhancement (fixed)

Make B-Tree sorting blazingly fast

Reported by: komzpa Owned by: komzpa
Priority: medium Milestone: PostGIS 3.0.0
Component: postgis Version: master
Keywords: Cc:

Description

  • make gserialized_get_sort_hash function;
  • make it return least possible value on EMPTY;
  • make it read not box, but first coordinate of gserialized. This way no geography/geometry branching is needed, and it should be faster than getting a float-rounded box center for geometries that don't store it;
  • make fast path for complete equality for fast GROUP BY in gserizlized_cmp;
  • create sortsupport function that will employ gserialized_get_sort_hash and full equality fast path;
  • investigate when to abort abbreviated compare in sort. (this is going to happen more often on 32bit machines, as sortsupport key will be 32bit, containing half of 64bit key).
