什么是Semi-Join半连接
Semi-Join半连接，当外表在内表中找到匹配的记录之后，Semi-Join会返回外表中的记录。但即使在内表中找到多条匹配的记录，外表也只会返回已经存在于外表中的记录。而对于子查询，外表的每个符合条件的元组都要执行一轮子查询，效率比较低下。此时使用半连接操作优化子查询，会减少查询次数，提高查询性能。其主要思路是将子查询上拉到父查询中，这样内表和外表是并列关系，外表的每个符合条件的元组，只需要在内表中找符合条件的元组即可，所以效率会大大提高。
当参与等值JOIN的表达式存在有重复值时, 如果不需要找出该表其他字段的值(也就是仅使用JOIN字段/表达式), 那么JOIN时只需要查每个值的第一条, 然后就可以跳到下一个值. 在数据库中常常被用来优化 in, exists, not exists, = any(), except 等操作(或者逻辑上成立的其他JOIN场景).
还有什么特别的join？PostgreSQL 与关系代数 (Equi-Join , Semi-Join , Anti-Join , Division)
并不是所有数据库都实现了所有场景的semi join, 例如 Oracle中的半连接，MySQL也有半连接
如果未实现, 有什么方法可以模拟semi-join?递归/group by/distinct on/distinct
Semi-Join 例子
准备测试数据
postgres=# create table a (id int, info text, ts timestamp);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# create table b (like a);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into a select id, md5(random()::text), now() from generate_series(0,1000000) as t(id);
INSERT 0 1000001
-- b表的100万行记录中b.id只有11个唯一值
postgres=# insert into b select random()*10, md5(random()::text), now() from generate_series(0,1000000) as t(id);
INSERT 0 1000001
postgres=# create index on a (id);
CREATE INDEX
postgres=# create index on b (id);
CREATE INDEX
未优化SQL
select a.* from a where exists (select 1 from b where a.id=b.id);
postgres=# explain analyze select a.* from a where exists (select 1 from b where a.id=b.id);

以上查询没有使用semi-join, 性能很一般.
由于b表的100万行记录中b.id只有11个唯一值, 可以使用semi-join进行加速.
用法参考: 《用PostgreSQL找回618秒逝去的青春 - 递归收敛优化》
使用递归模拟SEMI-JOIN, 只需要 0.171 ms 既可得出b表 11个值的结果.

使用递归模拟semi-join, SQL改写如下:
select a.* from a where exists (select 1 from b where a.id=b.id);
改写成
select a.* from a where exists (select 1 from
(
with recursive tmp as (
select min(id) as id from b
union all
select (select min(b.id) from b where b.id > tmp.id) from tmp where tmp.id is not null
)
select * from tmp where tmp.id is not null
) b
where a.id=b.id);
改写后速度从226.630 ms 提升到 0.246 ms
postgres=# explain analyze select a.* from a where exists (select 1 from
(
with recursive tmp as (
select min(id) as id from b
union all
select (select min(b.id) from b where b.id > tmp.id) from tmp where tmp.id is not null

select * from tmp where tmp.id is not null
