简单的查询，具有出色的性能和工作的差距:

SELECT * FROM tbl AS t1 JOIN (SELECT id FROM tbl ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10) as t2 ON t1.id=t2.id

在一个200K表上的这个查询需要0.08秒，而在我的机器上，正常版本(SELECT * FROM tbl ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10)需要0.35秒。

这是快速的，因为排序阶段只使用索引ID列。你可以在解释中看到这种行为:

SELECT * FROM tbl ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10:

SELECT * FROM tbl AS t1 JOIN (SELECT id FROM tbl ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10) AS t2 ON t1.id=t2.id

从书中:

使用偏移量选择随机行

这是另一种避免前面提到的问题的技术 替代方法是统计数据集中的行数并返回一个随机值 0到计数之间的数字。然后用这个数字作为抵消 查询数据集时

$rand = "SELECT ROUND(RAND() * (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Bugs))";
$offset = $pdo->query($rand)->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM Bugs LIMIT 1 OFFSET :offset";
$stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
$stmt->execute( $offset );
$rand_bug = $stmt->fetch();

在不能假定连续键值和时使用此解决方案 您需要确保每一行都有均等的机会被选中。

我使用了Riedsio发布的http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/mysql/order-by-rand/(我使用了返回一个或多个随机值的存储过程的情况):

   DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS rands;
   CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE rands ( rand_id INT );

    loop_me: LOOP
        IF cnt < 1 THEN
          LEAVE loop_me;
        END IF;

        INSERT INTO rands
           SELECT r1.id
             FROM random AS r1 JOIN
                  (SELECT (RAND() *
                                (SELECT MAX(id)
                                   FROM random)) AS id)
                   AS r2
            WHERE r1.id >= r2.id
            ORDER BY r1.id ASC
            LIMIT 1;

        SET cnt = cnt - 1;
      END LOOP loop_me;

在这篇文章中，他通过维护一个表(使用触发器等)解决了id中的间隙导致不那么随机的结果的问题。参见文章); 我通过向表中添加另一列来解决这个问题，用连续的数字填充，从1开始(编辑:此列添加到运行时由子查询创建的临时表中，不影响永久表):

   DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS rands;
   CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE rands ( rand_id INT );

    loop_me: LOOP
        IF cnt < 1 THEN
          LEAVE loop_me;
        END IF;

        SET @no_gaps_id := 0;

        INSERT INTO rands
           SELECT r1.id
             FROM (SELECT id, @no_gaps_id := @no_gaps_id + 1 AS no_gaps_id FROM random) AS r1 JOIN
                  (SELECT (RAND() *
                                (SELECT COUNT(*)
                                   FROM random)) AS id)
                   AS r2
            WHERE r1.no_gaps_id >= r2.id
            ORDER BY r1.no_gaps_id ASC
            LIMIT 1;

        SET cnt = cnt - 1;
      END LOOP loop_me;

在文章中，我可以看到他花了很大的精力来优化代码;我不知道我的改变是否/有多大影响性能，但对我来说非常好。

所有最好的答案都已经贴出来了(主要是那些引用了http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/mysql/order-by-rand/的链接)。

I want to pinpoint another speed-up possibility - caching. Think of why you need to get random rows. Probably you want display some random post or random ad on a website. If you are getting 100 req/s, is it really needed that each visitor gets random rows? Usually it is completely fine to cache these X random rows for 1 second (or even 10 seconds). It doesn't matter if 100 unique visitors in the same 1 second get the same random posts, because the next second another 100 visitors will get different set of posts.

当使用这种缓存时，你也可以使用一些较慢的解决方案来获取随机数据，因为不管你的req/s如何，它每秒只会从MySQL中获取一次。

这里有一个改变游戏规则的方法，可能对许多人有帮助;

我有一个有200k行的表，有连续的id，我需要选择N个随机行，所以我选择根据表中最大的id生成随机值，我创建了这个脚本来找出哪个是最快的操作:

logTime();
query("SELECT COUNT(id) FROM tbl");
logTime();
query("SELECT MAX(id) FROM tbl");
logTime();
query("SELECT id FROM tbl ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1");
logTime();

结果如下:

计数:36.8418693542479毫秒 Max: 0.241041183472 ms 订单:0.216960906982毫秒

根据这个结果，order desc是得到最大id的最快操作， 以下是我对这个问题的回答:

SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(n SEPARATOR ',') g FROM (
    SELECT FLOOR(RAND() * (
        SELECT id FROM tbl ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1
    )) n FROM tbl LIMIT 10) a

...
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE id IN ($result);

供您参考:从一个200k表中随机获得10行，我花了1.78 ms(包括php方面的所有操作)
