Parallelized truncates
Hello,
I am working in an application that has a pretty large data model that is initially cleaned up with as of today 141 tables being truncated. Each TRUNCATE taking between 10ms and 20ms. That's almost 3 seconds of waiting for my database to be empty.
- Before I start any work, are there any concerns against parallelizing those truncate statements using threads for example?
- Would you be interested by a PR?
Ideas:
- opt-in setting, parallelization would be turned off by default
- I am most familiar with MySQL, but I don't see how running parallel truncates on different tables would be a concern
- The threading would be positioned here, common for all adapters
Thanks,
