cannot stream cursor on very large table

• asyncpg version: 0.18.3

• PostgreSQL version: 9.6.8

• Do you use a PostgreSQL SaaS? If so, which? Can you reproduce
  the issue with a local PostgreSQL install?: AWS Aurora Postgres. Tried connecting to both writer and read replica. Did not try local postgres.

• Python version: 3.7.3

• Platform: macOS 10.14.5

• Do you use pgbouncer?: No

• Did you install asyncpg with pip?: Yes

• If you built asyncpg locally, which version of Cython did you use?: N/A

• Can the issue be reproduced under both asyncio and
  uvloop?: Did not try.

I'm running into an issue with using cursors on a very large postgres table. The table has approximately 60 million rows. The table has only 8 columns and each row is very small. I'm trying to use a server side cursor to stream the results in (ordered) but it just completely freezes while establishing the con.cursor. This is my code:

import asyncio
import asyncpg

dsn = 'postgresql://...:...@....us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com/...'

async def run():
    con = await asyncpg.connect(dsn)
    print(con)
    async with con.transaction():
        async for record in con.cursor('SELECT * FROM pageviews ORDER BY user_id', prefetch=10, timeout=2):
            print(record)
    await con.close()

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(run())

I tried using both the iterable cursor (with explicit prefetch) and the regular cursor and neither worked. The following psycopg2 code using a "named cursor" (server-side cursor) works properly:

import datetime
import psycopg2
from psycopg2.extras import RealDictCursor

cursor_name = datetime.datetime.now().isoformat()

dsn = 'postgresql://...:...@....us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com/...'
conn = psycopg2.connect(dsn, cursor_factory=RealDictCursor)

with conn.cursor(cursor_name) as cursor:
    sql = "SELECT * FROM pageviews ORDER BY user_id;"
    cursor.execute(sql)
    for i, row in enumerate(cursor):
        print(i, row)

I need to stream the entire ordered table and perform a streaming groupby and then run some computation on each grouped object. I'm looking to asyncpg to decrease the IO time.

トランザクション内で、提供されている asyncpg.cursor 呼び出しから始め、大きく順序付けされた pageviews クエリと prefetch 設定を使用します。psycopg2 の名前付きカーソルの例とその動作を比較し、フリーズせずにストリーミングが開始されるかを確認します。報告されている PostgreSQL と Python のバージョンで、順序付けされた結果セットを段階的に消費できれば完了です。
