MySql: make this query faster… is there a way ? PART TWO

This is part two of the question: MySql: make this query faster... is there a way?

this query still run slowly:

SELECT b.id,
       b.name,
       c.name
FROM bookcorr as a JOIN books as b on b.id = a.books_id =
JOIN Library as c on c.id = a.library_id 
WHERE a.category_id = '2521' 
AND a.library_id = '4983' 
ORDER BY b.name ASC LIMIT 0,15

Any suggest ?

CREATE TABLE `bookcorr` (
  `category_id` smallint(4) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `book_id` mediumint(7) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `library_id` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL,
  UNIQUE KEY `cat_id_3` (`category_id`,`book_id`,`library_id`),
  KEY `category_id` (`category_id`),
  KEY `book_id` (`book_id`),
  KEY `library_id` (`library_id`),
  KEY `cat_id_2` (`cat_id`,`com_id`))

CREATE TABLE `books` (
  `id` mediumint(7) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `com_id` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(256) NOT NULL,
    ....
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  KEY `name` (`name`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `search` (`name`,`author`)
)

 CREATE TABLE `Library` (
  `id` smallint(4) unsigned NOT NULL A开发者_开发技巧UTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(256) NOT NULL,
  ...
  UNIQUE KEY `id` (`id`),
  KEY `library_name` (`name`)
) 

CREATE TABLE `Category` (
  `id` smallint(4) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
  UNIQUE KEY `id` (`id`),
  KEY `name` (`name`),
)

Here:

Looks like you need to study how to use "explain select".

It will make all your queries faster! :)

Add a books_id index in bookcorr table.If the query stills slow, try to use numerical ids for the books(Integer).

SELECT  b.id,
        b.name,
        c.name
FROM    books as b
JOIN    bookcorr as a
ON      a.books_id = b.id
        AND a.category_id = '2521' 
        AND a.library_id = '4983' 
JOIN    Library as c
ON      c.id = a.library_id 
ORDER BY
        b.name ASC
LIMIT 15

Create the following indexes:

books (name)
bookcorr (category_id, library_id, books_id)

Update:

If you need the total record count, it would be better doing it in two queries.

Assuming that books_id and library_id always reference a record in books and library, use this query:

SELECT  COUNT(*)
FROM    bookcorr a
WHERE   a.category_id = '2521'
        AND a.library_id = '4983' 

to calculate the count.

Update 2:

SELECT  b.id,
        b.name,
        c.name
FROM    books b USE INDEX (name)
STRAIGHT_JOIN
        bookcorr a
ON      a.books_id = b.id
        AND a.category_id = '2521' 
        AND a.library_id = '4983' 
STRAIGHT_JOIN
        Library as c
ON      c.id = a.library_id 
ORDER BY
        b.name ASC
LIMIT 15

Is it a typo or why in the original query the SQL like that (?):

JOIN books as b on b.id = a.books_id = JOIN Library as c on c.id = a.library_id

mysql> explain SELECT b.id,b.name,c.name FROM bookcorr as a JOIN books as b on a.book_id = b.id JOIN library as c on b.library_id=c.id WHERE a.category_id = '2302' AND a.library_id = '4983' order by b.name asc LIMIT 0,15;
