Come selezionare una singola riga a 100 milioni di x

Lieve modifica alla soluzione di Bruno

SELECT (SELECT COALESCE(max(id),0)+1 FROM table1), 
        @rownum:[email protected]+1 new_id 
FROM 
(SELECT @rownum:=0) r, 
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t1,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t2,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t3,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t4,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t5,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t6,
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) t7
LIMIT 100

O un'altra versione senza le variabili

SELECT (SELECT Coalesce(MAX(id), 0) + 1
        FROM   table1),
       t1.n * 10 + t2.n + 1 AS new_id
FROM   (SELECT 0 AS n UNION ALL
        SELECT 1      UNION ALL
        SELECT 2      UNION ALL
        SELECT 3      UNION ALL
        SELECT 4      UNION ALL
        SELECT 5      UNION ALL
        SELECT 6      UNION ALL
        SELECT 7      UNION ALL
        SELECT 8      UNION ALL
        SELECT 9) t1,
       (SELECT 0 AS n UNION ALL
        SELECT 1      UNION ALL
        SELECT 2      UNION ALL
        SELECT 3      UNION ALL
        SELECT 4      UNION ALL
        SELECT 5      UNION ALL
        SELECT 6      UNION ALL
        SELECT 7      UNION ALL
        SELECT 8      UNION ALL
        SELECT 9) t2
ORDER  BY new_id
