查看表结构：
mysql show create table coupon_use_test \G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Table: coupon_use_test
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `coupon_use_test` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 ,
`user_id` varchar(40) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT NULL,
`coupon_code` varchar(40) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT ,
`status` varchar(2) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT 00 ,
`use_time` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
`remark1` varchar(200) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT NULL,
`remark2` varchar(200) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT NULL,
`remark3` varchar(200) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT NULL,
`create_time` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
`create_user_id` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin DEFAULT NULL,
`update_time` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
1 row in set (0.00 sec)测试查询速度：
mysql select max(create_time) from coupon_use_test;
+---------------------+
| max(create_time) |
+---------------------+
| 2016-06-25 16:44:25 |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (2.01 sec)查看执行计划：
mysql explain select max(create_time) from coupon_use_test;
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+----------+-------+
| id | select_type | table | partitions | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | filtered | Extra |
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+----------+-------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | coupon_use_test | NULL | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 1706101 | 100.00 | NULL |
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+----------+-------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)创建 create_time 字段索引
mysql alter table coupon_use_test add index idx_create_time(create_time);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (17.49 sec)
Records: 0 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0再次查询：
mysql select max(create_time) from coupon_use_test;
+---------------------+
| max(create_time) |
+---------------------+
| 2016-06-25 16:44:25 |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)查看执行计划：
mysql explain select max(create_time) from coupon_use_test;
+----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | partitions | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | filtered | Extra |
+----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+------------------------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | Select tables optimized away |
+----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+------------------------------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)索引是有序的，create_time 字段加完索引之后取 max（create_time）速度变快。
看到其他优化方法，通过转变 SQL 查询方式实现
mysql select create_time from coupon_use_test order by create_time desc limit 1;
+---------------------+
| create_time |
+---------------------+
| 2016-06-25 16:44:25 |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)查看执行计划：
mysql explain select create_time from coupon_use_test order by create_time desc limit 1;
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+-------+---------------+-----------------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | partitions | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | filtered | Extra |
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+-------+---------------+-----------------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | coupon_use_test | NULL | index | NULL | idx_create_time | 4 | NULL | 1 | 100.00 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-----------------+------------+-------+---------------+-----------------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+
