Update-query te traag op Postgres 9.1

Dit is geen oplossing, maar een work-around voor datamodellering

• verdeel de urls in {protocol,hostname,pathname} componenten.
• Je kunt nu exacte overeenkomsten gebruiken om deel te nemen aan het hostnaamgedeelte, waarbij je het leidende % in de regex-overeenkomst vermijdt.
• de weergave is bedoeld om aan te tonen dat de full_url indien nodig kan worden gereconstrueerd.

De update kan waarschijnlijk een paar minuten duren.

DROP TABLE urls CASCADE;
CREATE TABLE urls
        ( id SERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
        , full_url varchar
        , proto varchar
        , hostname varchar
        , pathname varchar
        );

INSERT INTO urls(full_url) VALUES
 ( 'ftp://www.myhost.com/secret.tgz' )

UPDATE urls
SET proto = split_part(full_url, '://' , 1)
        , hostname = split_part(full_url, '://' , 2)
        ;

UPDATE urls
SET pathname = substr(hostname, 1+strpos(hostname, '/' ))
        , hostname = split_part(hostname, '/' , 1)
        ;

        -- the full_url field is now redundant: we can drop it
ALTER TABLE urls
        DROP column full_url
        ;
        -- and we could always reconstruct the full_url from its components.
CREATE VIEW vurls AS (
        SELECT id
        , proto || '://' || hostname || '/' || pathname AS full_url
        , proto
        , hostname
        , pathname
        FROM urls
        );

SELECT * FROM urls;
        ;
SELECT * FROM vurls;
