MySQL 5.7+ on Enterprise

With the 6.0.6-GA release, an Enterprise module performance issue with MySQL 5.7+ has been addressed. If you plan to upgrade from a version of MySQL prior to 5.7, a new index has been added for tables that support sandboxing. The below MySQL Query can be executed which creates the appropriate CREATE INDEX SQL statements which can then be applied to your upgraded (5.7+) database. Note that the @missing_index_schema may need to be changed to match your schema name.

set @missing_index_schema='broadleaf';
select concat('CREATE INDEX idx_BLADONPRDA_SNDBX_CATALO on ', concat(TABLE_NAME, ' (SNDBX_CATALOG_FLAG);'))
FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT TABLE_NAME
    FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
    WHERE COLUMN_NAME IN ('SNDBX_CATALOG_FLAG')
        AND TABLE_SCHEMA=@missing_index_schema
        AND TABLE_NAME not in
(SELECT DISTINCT TABLE_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.STATISTICS s
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA=@missing_index_schema
AND COLUMN_NAME = 'SNDBX_CATALOG_FLAG'
AND SEQ_IN_INDEX = 1)) missing_indexes;
