[Bug 39618] New: Add a non-unique index/key to borrowers table for preferred_name
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=39618 Bug ID: 39618 Summary: Add a non-unique index/key to borrowers table for preferred_name Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: lucas@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org We have seen some slowdown in patron searches since upgrading sites to 24.11 that seem to be tied to the introduction of preferred_name. Adding a key for preferred_name seems to speed up queries by quite a bit when filtering or sorting by preferred_name.

Can you explain the patch a bit more? Marking Failed QA since the patch is missing a change for kohastructure.sql. I double-checked main and it doesn't look like that index already exists there. Also, in the atomic update, it only adds the index if the "debit_id" index doesn't exist in the "article_requests" table?

That's really interesting.
Can you explain the patch a bit more?
Without an index a search on the borrowers table for 'Bri', 'Bria', or 'Brian' will read through every row checking each 1 by 1. With an index the DB lookup starts with 'Bri', 'Bria', or 'Brian' as a starting point and is much faster. I mention 'Bri', 'Bria', or 'Brian' because these may all be lookups w/ the autocomplete feature as you continue to type the name 'Brian', letter by letter. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I guess I meant sign off rather than QA. This is looking good at a glance. I do notice that it doesn't follow the pattern of most of the other indexes (ie it's missing the "_idx" suffix at the end of the index name), but that's fine I think. Not a real issue.

This patch returned the following error in my local instance.
ERROR: {UNKNOWN}: DBI Exception: DBD::mysql::db do failed: BLOB/TEXT column 'preferred_name' used in key specification without a key length
The field preferred_name is defined as longtext so I understand the key for preferred_name should have a length like the index of middle_name
CREATE INDEX middle_name_idx ON borrowers ( middle_name(768) )
I think that Adolfo makes a good point. At the very least, we should be consistent in the adding of indexes, and middle name is a good one to copy. On a fairly new KTD, I dropped "preferred_name_idx" and re-added it. While there wasn't a noisy error message, I did notice that there was a warning in KTD: MariaDB [koha_kohadev]> ALTER TABLE `borrowers` ADD KEY `preferred_name_idx` (`preferred_name`); Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.050 sec) Records: 0 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 1 MariaDB [koha_kohadev]> show warnings; +-------+------+----------------------------------------------------------+ | Level | Code | Message | +-------+------+----------------------------------------------------------+ | Note | 1071 | Specified key was too long; max key length is 3072 bytes | +-------+------+----------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.000 sec) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

According to MySQL 8.4 website: "Strict mode produces an error for attempts to create a key that exceeds the maximum key length. When strict mode is not enabled, this results in a warning and truncation of the key to the maximum key length." -- I can't find any useful information on the MariaDB website about it. -- In any case, we should add a follow-up for this one to bring it in line with our other indexes and prevent issues for people. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Follow-up pushed to main.
@David: can you explain about your choice of 768?
It's two-fold. First, middle_name and other longtext column indexes are configured the same way. Second, it's what MySQL says to do: "For InnoDB tables that use COMPRESSED or DYNAMIC row format, index key prefixes longer than 767 bytes (up to 3072 bytes) are permitted. Tables created with these row formats enable you to index a maximum of 1024 or 768 characters for utf8mb3 or utf8mb4 columns, respectively." 768 characters at 4 bytes each = 3072 total bytes https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/charset-unicode-conversion.html -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
