The Infamous ORDER BY LIMIT Query Optimizer Bug

Which is faster: LIMIT 1 or LIMIT 20? Presumably, fetching less rows is faster than fetching more rows. But for 16 years (since 2007) the MySQL query optimizer has had a “bug”† that not only makes LIMIT 1 slower than LIMIT 20 but can also make the former a table scan, which tends to cause problems. This happened last week where I work, and although MySQL DBAs are familiar with this bug, I’m writing this blog post for developers to more clearly illustrate and explain what’s going on and why because it’s really counterintuitive.

MySQL at DOAG 2023 – recap

Last week, from November 21 to 24, the DOAG Conference took place in Nuremberg, Germany.

The MySQL Team was present at the Oracle booth. I attended the conference Thursday and Friday.

Thoughts on the October 2023 MySQL Releases

A few days ago, Oracle released three new MySQL GA versions: 8.2.0, 8.0.35 and 5.7.44.  I skimmed the release notes (8.2.0, 8.0.35 and 5.7.44), and I am not impressed.  I guess that I would be even less impressed / more disappointed if I had checked in greater detail, and if I had reviewed the 8.1.0, 8.0.34 and 5.7.43 release notes.  The subject of my disappointment is Oracle not
