我想对matthieu的帖子发表评论，但我还没有得到代表…

在MySQL中，自动递增计数器通过truncate重置，而不是通过delete重置。

TRUNCATE是DDL语句，而DELETE是DML语句。以下是两者的区别:

As TRUNCATE is a DDL (Data definition language) statement it does not require a commit to make the changes permanent. And this is the reason why rows deleted by truncate could not be rollbacked. On the other hand DELETE is a DML (Data manipulation language) statement hence requires explicit commit to make its effect permanent. TRUNCATE always removes all the rows from a table, leaving the table empty and the table structure intact whereas DELETE may remove conditionally if the where clause is used. The rows deleted by TRUNCATE TABLE statement cannot be restored and you can not specify the where clause in the TRUNCATE statement. TRUNCATE statements does not fire triggers as opposed of on delete trigger on DELETE statement

都是很好的答案，我必须补充一句:

由于TRUNCATE TABLE是一个DDL(数据定义语言)命令，而不是DML(数据操作语言)命令，删除触发器不会运行。

摘自dotnet mob文章:删除Vs截断SQL Server

最大的区别是truncate是不记录日志的操作，而delete是。

简单地说，这意味着在数据库崩溃的情况下，不能通过截断恢复所操作的数据，但可以通过删除恢复。
