I'm designing a database schema using PostgreSQL. I have some doubts about which design should I use.

The table tdir_details_uris_text will have many millions of registers, each key domain, uri, id_language will have about 10/20 registers.

Which design should perform well? The 3 tables design or the 2 tables design?

Best Regards,

PS: Sorry for my poor English.

Update: Just to add an INSERT INTO example

Sounds like a many-to-many relationship, which would require a three table design.

But I don't think it's the design you show. I don't see the correct primary key relationship.

Table A would have ID_A as primary key.

Table B would have ID_B as primary key.

The JOIN Table AB would have primary key ID_A, ID_B; each one would be a foreign key into Table A and B, respectively.


Your "tdirs_uris_text" table in option 1 has no purpose that I can see (if you only have the two tables in your entire design). The question to ask is whether the primary key in "tdirs_uris_text" will ever be used multiple times on a different table (as a foreign key). Specifically, would there ever be a case where the "details" table has the "uris" foreign key appear multiple times? If so option 1 is better otherwise option 2 is preferred.
