      Improve performance of User.find_by_any_email · 49c081b9

      This query used to rely on a JOIN, effectively producing the following
      SQL:
      
          SELECT users.*
          FROM users
          LEFT OUTER JOIN emails ON emails.user_id = users.id
          WHERE (users.email = X OR emails.email = X)
          LIMIT 1;
      
      The use of a JOIN means having to scan over all Emails and users, join
      them together and then filter out the rows that don't match the criteria
      (though this step may be taken into account already when joining).
      
      In the new setup this query instead uses a sub-query, producing the
      following SQL:
      
          SELECT *
          FROM users
          WHERE id IN (select user_id FROM emails WHERE email = X)
          OR email = X
          LIMIT 1;
      
      This query has the benefit that it:
      
      1. Doesn't have to JOIN any rows
      2. Only has to operate on a relatively small set of rows from the
         "emails" table.
      
      Since most users will only have a handful of Emails associated
      (certainly not hundreds or even thousands) the size of the set returned
      by the sub-query is small enough that it should not become problematic.
      
      Performance of the old versus new version can be measured using the
      following benchmark:
      
          # Save this in ./bench.rb
          require 'benchmark/ips'
      
          email = 'yorick@gitlab.com'
      
          def User.find_by_any_email_old(email)
            user_table = arel_table
            email_table = Email.arel_table
      
            query = user_table.
              project(user_table[Arel.star]).
              join(email_table, Arel::Nodes::OuterJoin).
              on(user_table[:id].eq(email_table[:user_id])).
              where(user_table[:email].eq(email).or(email_table[:email].eq(email)))
      
            find_by_sql(query.to_sql).first
          end
      
          Benchmark.ips do |bench|
            bench.report 'original' do
              User.find_by_any_email_old(email)
            end
      
            bench.report 'optimized' do
              User.find_by_any_email(email)
            end
      
            bench.compare!
          end
      
      Running this locally using "bundle exec rails r bench.rb" produces the
      following output:
      
          Calculating -------------------------------------
                      original     1.000  i/100ms
                     optimized    93.000  i/100ms
          -------------------------------------------------
                      original     11.103  (± 0.0%) i/s -     56.000
                     optimized    948.713  (± 5.3%) i/s -      4.743k
      
          Comparison:
                     optimized:      948.7 i/s
                      original:       11.1 i/s - 85.45x slower
      
      In other words, the new setup is 85x faster compared to the old setup,
      at least when running this benchmark locally.
      
      For GitLab.com these improvements result in User.find_by_any_email
      taking only ~170 ms to run, instead of around 800 ms. While this is
      "only" an improvement of about 4.5 times (instead of 85x) it's still
      significantly better than before.
      
      Fixes #3242

      Improve performance of User.by_login · 72f428c7
      Yorick Peterse 提交于
      Performance is improved in two steps:
      
      1. On PostgreSQL an expression index is used for checking lower(email)
         and lower(username).
      2. The check to determine if we're searching for a username or Email is
         moved to Ruby. Thanks to @haynes for suggesting and writing the
         initial implementation of this.
      
      Moving the check to Ruby makes this method an additional 1.5 times
      faster compared to doing the check in the SQL query.
      
      With performance being improved I've now also tweaked the amount of
      iterations required by the User.by_login benchmark. This method now runs
      between 900 and 1000 iterations per second.
