I think you are approaching the problem from the wrong end.

Trying to determine the similarity of queries by comparing the SQL is problematic. For example, all these queries are textually similar, but produce quite different results sets:

select thing from tableA; select thing from tableA limit 1000 offset 1000; select count( thing ) from tableA; select thing from tableB;

Conversely, it not hard to dream up two or more radically different queries that produce identical results sets. Throw in a few joins and sub-selects and you would likely never determine their similarity.

If your intention is to try and cache the results from long running queries and re-use them, I think you will have an inordinately big task.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
