/*------------------------------------------------------------------------- * * costsize.c * Routines to compute (and set) relation sizes and path costs * * Path costs are measured in units of disk accesses: one sequential page * fetch has cost 1. All else is scaled relative to a page fetch, using * the scaling parameters * * random_page_cost Cost of a non-sequential page fetch * cpu_tuple_cost Cost of typical CPU time to process a tuple * cpu_index_tuple_cost Cost of typical CPU time to process an index tuple * cpu_operator_cost Cost of CPU time to process a typical WHERE operator * * We also use a rough estimate "effective_cache_size" of the number of * disk pages in Postgres + OS-level disk cache. (We can't simply use * NBuffers for this purpose because that would ignore the effects of * the kernel's disk cache.) * * Obviously, taking constants for these values is an oversimplification, * but it's tough enough to get any useful estimates even at this level of * detail. Note that all of these parameters are user-settable, in case * the default values are drastically off for a particular platform. * * We compute two separate costs for each path: * total_cost: total estimated cost to fetch all tuples * startup_cost: cost that is expended before first tuple is fetched * In some scenarios, such as when there is a LIMIT or we are implementing * an EXISTS(...) sub-select, it is not necessary to fetch all tuples of the * path's result. A caller can estimate the cost of fetching a partial * result by interpolating between startup_cost and total_cost. In detail: * actual_cost = startup_cost + * (total_cost - startup_cost) * tuples_to_fetch / path->parent->rows; * Note that a relation's rows count (and, by extension, a Plan's plan_rows) * are set without regard to any LIMIT, so that this equation works properly. * (Also, these routines guarantee not to set the rows count to zero, so there * will be no zero divide.)
