Bug #55716 CHECK TABLES should not perform check on entire adaptive hash index

Description:
Currently we do a full validation of AHI whenever check tables is called on any table. This can lead to unacceptable performance of CHECK TABLES.

How to repeat:
Do CHECK TABLE on a small table while there is a very large adaptive hash index.

Suggested fix:
Do full validation of AHI only in debug builds.

This issue is fixed, and no documentation needed given it applies to debug binary only.

[14 Sep 2010 7:06] Marko Mäkelä

Calvin, I think that this fix must be documented. Before this fix, CHECK TABLE triggered not only a consistency check of all indexes of the given tables, but also a consistency check of the adaptive hash index data structures, covering all pages in the buffer pool. After this fix, the consistency check of the adaptive hash index is only enabled in debug binaries.

Added to change log:

The CHECK TABLE command could cause a time-consuming verification of
the InnoDB adaptive hash index memory structure. Now this extra
checking is only performed in binaries built for debugging.
