我认为这是一个简单但更快的方法，我在现场服务器上测试了它，与上面的几个答案相比，它更快。

 SELECT * FROM `table_name` WHERE id >= (SELECT FLOOR( MAX(id) * RAND()) FROM `table_name` ) ORDER BY id LIMIT 30; 

//对一个130行的表花费0.0014秒

SELECT * FROM `table_name` WHERE 1 ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 30

//对130行的表花费0.0042秒

 SELECT name
FROM random AS r1 JOIN
   (SELECT CEIL(RAND() *
                 (SELECT MAX(id)
                    FROM random)) AS id)
    AS r2
WHERE r1.id >= r2.id
ORDER BY r1.id ASC
LIMIT 30

//对130行的表花费0.0040秒

SELECT column FROM table
ORDER BY RAND()
LIMIT 10

这不是有效的解决方案，但确实有效

SELECT
  * 
FROM
  table_with_600k_rows
WHERE
  RAND( ) 
ORDER BY
  id DESC 
LIMIT 30;

Id是主键，按Id排序， 解释table_with_600k_rows，发现该行不扫描整个表

我得到了快速查询(大约0.5秒)，cpu很慢，在一个400K寄存器的MySQL数据库中随机选择10行，非缓存2Gb大小。在MySQL中快速选择随机行

$time= microtime_float();

$sql='SELECT COUNT(*) FROM pages';
$rquery= BD_Ejecutar($sql);
list($num_records)=mysql_fetch_row($rquery);
mysql_free_result($rquery);

$sql="SELECT id FROM pages WHERE RAND()*$num_records<20
   ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 0,10";
$rquery= BD_Ejecutar($sql);
while(list($id)=mysql_fetch_row($rquery)){
    if($id_in) $id_in.=",$id";
    else $id_in="$id";
}
mysql_free_result($rquery);

$sql="SELECT id,url FROM pages WHERE id IN($id_in)";
$rquery= BD_Ejecutar($sql);
while(list($id,$url)=mysql_fetch_row($rquery)){
    logger("$id, $url",1);
}
mysql_free_result($rquery);

$time= microtime_float()-$time;

logger("num_records=$num_records",1);
logger("$id_in",1);
logger("Time elapsed: <b>$time segundos</b>",1);

如果你只有一个读请求

将@redsio的答案与一个临时表结合起来(600K并不是很多):

DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS tmp_randorder;
CREATE TABLE tmp_randorder (id int(11) not null auto_increment primary key, data_id int(11));
INSERT INTO tmp_randorder (data_id) select id from datatable;

然后用一个@redsios的版本回答:

SELECT dt.*
FROM
       (SELECT (RAND() *
                     (SELECT MAX(id)
                        FROM tmp_randorder)) AS id)
        AS rnd
 INNER JOIN tmp_randorder rndo on rndo.id between rnd.id - 10 and rnd.id + 10
 INNER JOIN datatable AS dt on dt.id = rndo.data_id
 ORDER BY abs(rndo.id - rnd.id)
 LIMIT 1;

如果表比较大，可以先筛选第一部分:

INSERT INTO tmp_randorder (data_id) select id from datatable where rand() < 0.01;

如果你有很多读请求

Version: You could keep the table tmp_randorder persistent, call it datatable_idlist. Recreate that table in certain intervals (day, hour), since it also will get holes. If your table gets really big, you could also refill holes select l.data_id as whole from datatable_idlist l left join datatable dt on dt.id = l.data_id where dt.id is null; Version: Give your Dataset a random_sortorder column either directly in datatable or in a persistent extra table datatable_sortorder. Index that column. Generate a Random-Value in your Application (I'll call it $rand). select l.* from datatable l order by abs(random_sortorder - $rand) desc limit 1;

这个解决方案用最高和最低的random_sortorder来区分“边缘行”，所以在间隔中重新排列它们(一天一次)。

我是这样做的:

select * 
from table_with_600k_rows
where rand() < 10/600000
limit 10

我喜欢它，因为它不需要其他表，写起来很简单，执行起来非常快。
