[mv] *** MiniVend SQL Concept ? ***



Title: *** MiniVend SQL Concept ? ***
Hello,

We are very worried because our team has recently decided to standardize on MiniVend for a huge swiss e-commerce project. The database contains 50'000 items that are updated everyday (hosted on a dual Pentium III 800 mhz RedHat 7.0 machine).

To gain maximum database security (transactional security), we have chosen PgSQL over MySQL. However, until now the database results are really bad.

According to PgSQL logs Š

001130 22:28:41      17 Connect    www@localhost on test_construct
                     17 Query      select * from products
                     17 Query      select fname from userdb where username = 'interchange'
                     17 Quit 

Š it seems to us that for a single standard search request MiniVend makes a 'SELECT * from products' and then sorts the results through PERL. Are we right or totally wrong ?  If this is true, we cannot see how the whole thing could be efficient in term of speeds. Without MiniVend, most of the requests take less than 0.5 seconds (even really complex ones). With MiniVend, results are awfully slow.

Thanks for any answer. We really hope we missunderstood the whole thing !

Mark
