XTP (eXtreme Transaction Processing) with Hekaton Tables & Native Compiled Stored Procedures – SQL Server 2014

December 19, 2013 1 comment

In my previous posts [this & this] I talked about creating Memory Optimized Database, how to create In-Memory Tables & Native Compiled Stored Procedures and what happens when they are created.

Here in this post we will see how FAST actually In-Memory tables & Native Compiled Stored Procedures are, when compared with normal Disk based Tables & Simple Stored Procedures.

I’ll be using the same [ManTest] database used in my previous posts, you can refer to the DDL script [here].
 

–> We will create:

1. One Disk based Table & one simple Stored Procedure which will use this Disk based Table.

2. One In-Memory Table & one Native Compiled Stored Procedure which will use this In-Memory Table.
 

1. Let’s first create a Disk based Table and a normal Stored Procedure:

USE [ManTest]
GO

-- Create a Disk table (non-Memory Optimized):
CREATE TABLE dbo.DiskTable
(
    ID INT NOT NULL
        PRIMARY KEY,
    VarString VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL, 
    DateAdded DATETIME NOT NULL
)
GO

-- Create normal Stored Procedure to load data into above Table:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spLoadDiskTable @maxRows INT, @VarString VARCHAR(200)
AS
BEGIN
	SET NOCOUNT ON

	DECLARE @i INT = 1

	WHILE @i <= @maxRows
	BEGIN
		INSERT INTO dbo.DiskTable VALUES(@i, @VarString, GETDATE())
		SET @i = @i+1
	END
END
GO

 

2. Now create an In-Memory table & a Native Compiled Stored Procedure to load data:

-- Create an In-Memory table:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MemOptTable
(
    ID INT NOT NULL
        PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED HASH WITH (BUCKET_COUNT = 10000),
    VarString VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL, 
    DateAdded DATETIME NOT NULL
) WITH (
	MEMORY_OPTIMIZED = ON, 
	DURABILITY = SCHEMA_AND_DATA
)
GO

-- Create Native Compiled Stored Procedure to load data into above Table:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spLoadMemOptTable @maxRows INT, @VarString VARCHAR(200)
WITH 
	NATIVE_COMPILATION, 
	SCHEMABINDING, 
	EXECUTE AS OWNER
AS
BEGIN ATOMIC
WITH (TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL=SNAPSHOT, LANGUAGE='us_english')

	DECLARE @i INT = 1

	WHILE @i <= @maxRows
	BEGIN
		INSERT INTO dbo.MemOptTable VALUES(@i, @VarString, GETDATE())
		SET @i = @i+1
	END
END
GO

 

–> Now we will try to Load 10k record in above 2 table in various ways, as follows:

1. Load Disk based Table by T-SQL script using a WHILE loop.

2. Load the same Disk based Table by Stored Procedure which internally uses a WHILE loop.

3. Load In-Memory Table by T-SQL script using a WHILE loop.

4. Load the same In-Memory Table by Native Compiled Stored Procedure which internally uses a WHILE loop.
 

–> Working with Disk based Tables:

SET NOCOUNT ON

DECLARE 
	@StartTime DATETIME2,
	@TotalTime INT

DECLARE 
	@i INT,
	@maxRows INT,
	@VarString VARCHAR(200)

SET @maxRows = 10000
SET @VarString = REPLICATE('a',200)

SET @StartTime = SYSDATETIME()
SET @i = 1

-- 1. Load Disk Table (without SP):
WHILE @i <= @maxRows
BEGIN
	INSERT INTO dbo.DiskTable VALUES(@i, @VarString, GETDATE())
	SET @i = @i+1
END

SET @TotalTime = DATEDIFF(ms,@StartTime,SYSDATETIME())

SELECT 'Disk Table Load: ' + CAST(@TotalTime AS VARCHAR) + ' ms (without SP)'

-- 2. Load Disk Table (with simple SP):
DELETE FROM dbo.DiskTable

SET @StartTime = SYSDATETIME()

EXEC spLoadDiskTable @maxRows, @VarString

SET @TotalTime = DATEDIFF(ms,@StartTime,SYSDATETIME())

SELECT 'Disk Table Load: ' + CAST(@TotalTime AS VARCHAR) + ' ms (with simple SP)'

 

–> Working with In-Memory Tables:

-- 3. Load Memory Optimized Table (without SP):
SET @StartTime = SYSDATETIME()
SET @i = 1

WHILE @i <= @maxRows
BEGIN
	INSERT INTO dbo.MemOptTable VALUES(@i, @VarString, GETDATE())
	SET @i = @i+1
END

SET @TotalTime = DATEDIFF(ms,@StartTime,SYSDATETIME())

SELECT 'Memory Table Load: ' + CAST(@TotalTime AS VARCHAR) + ' ms (without SP)'

-- 4. Load Memory Optimized Table (with Native Compiled SP):
DELETE FROM dbo.MemOptTable

SET @StartTime = SYSDATETIME()

EXEC spLoadMemOptTable @maxRows, @VarString

SET @TotalTime = DATEDIFF(ms,@StartTime,SYSDATETIME())

SELECT 'Disk Table Load: ' + CAST(@TotalTime AS VARCHAR) + ' ms (with Native Compiled SP)'
GO

–> Output (Loaded 10k records):

Disk based Table Load	 : 28382 ms (without SP)
Disk based Table SP Load : 8297 ms  (with simple SP)
In-Memory Table Load     : 5176 ms  (without SP)
In-Memory Table SP Load  : 174 ms   (with Native Compiled SP)

 

So, you can clearly see the benefit and multifold increase in performance by using In-Memory Tables & Native Compiled Stored Procedures. The graph below shows performance in visual bar charts, impressive, isn’t it?

DROP PROCEDURE dbo.spLoadDiskTable
DROP TABLE dbo.DiskTable
DROP PROCEDURE dbo.spLoadMemOptTable
DROP TABLE dbo.MemOptTable
GO

Behind the scenes with Hekaton Tables & Native Compiled SPs | SQL Server 2014

September 25, 2013 1 comment

In my previous posts I talked about:

1. What’s [new with SQL Server 2014 & Hekaton] and CTP-1 [download link].

2. [Installing] SQL Server 2014 with Sneak-Peek.

3. Working with [Hekaton] Tables.

Here, in this post I’ll discuss more on what the new SQL Server 2014 does behind the scene while you create Hekaton or Memory-Optimized Tables & Native Compiled Stored Procedures.

I will use the same Database (Hekaton enabled) created in my [previous post], and then we will check what SQL Server does while creating Hekaton tables & Compiled SPs:

–> Create Memory-Optimized Table:

USE [ManTest]
GO

CREATE TABLE dbo.Test_memoryOptimizedTable
(
	TestID INT NOT NULL
		PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED HASH WITH (BUCKET_COUNT = 1024),
	
	TestName NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, 
	
	DateAdded DATETIME NOT NULL

) WITH (MEMORY_OPTIMIZED = ON, DURABILITY = SCHEMA_AND_DATA)
GO

–> Create Native Compiled Stored Procedure:

USE [ManTest]
GO

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Test_NativelyCompiledStoredProcedure (
	@param1 INT not null, 
	@param2 NVARCHAR(100) not null
	)
WITH NATIVE_COMPILATION, SCHEMABINDING, EXECUTE AS OWNER
AS
BEGIN ATOMIC
WITH (
	TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL = SNAPSHOT, 
	LANGUAGE = N'us_english'
	)

INSERT dbo.Test_memoryOptimizedTable VALUES (@param1, @param2, getdate())

END
GO

–> After executing above code as usual the Tables & Stored Procedure will be created. But the important thing here is what the Hekaton Engine does internally, is shown in the following image below:
SQLServer2014_C_Code_DLL

– It creates total 6 files for every Table & SP with following extensions: .c, .dll, .mat, .obj, .out and .pdb.

– Most important are the C Code and the DLL files with four (4) other supporting files for each Table the Stored Procedure and stores them at following path: “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\xtp\5\”.

– The “xtp” folder/directory here contains a sub-folder “5” which is nothing but the Database ID, check this:

SELECT DB_ID();

SELECT object_id, name, type
FROM sys.sysobjects 
WHERE name IN ('Test_memoryOptimizedTable', 'Test_NativelyCompiledStoredProcedure');

– If you look closely the file are create with particular naming conventions and relate to the results of above query:
— For files xtp_t_5_277576027: xtp_t is for Table, 5 is the Database ID and 277576027 is the Object (table) ID.
— For files xtp_p_5_325576198: xtp_p is for Stored Procedure, 5 is the Database ID and 325576198 is the Object (Stored Procedure) ID.

–> Opening the xtp_t_5_277576027.c file looks like this:

#define __in
#define __out
#define __inout
#define __in_opt
#define __out_opt
#define __inout_opt
