MySQL Haversine Benchmark

1. Run setup

   mysql your-database-name < setup.sql
   

   This will (re)create:

   • Four tables: floats, floats_indexed, points, and points_indexed.
   • Nine procedures: generate_coords, float_coords_within_radius, float_indexed_coords_within_radius, hybrid_coords_within_radius hybrid_coords_within_radius_point, hybrid_indexed_coords_within_radius, hybrid_indexed_coords_within_radius_point, point_coords_within_radius, point_indexed_coords_within_radius
   • Two functions: haversine and haversine_alt.

   And then will generate and insert 1,000,000 random coordinates into each of the four tables.

2. Navigate to index.php in your browser and login.
