But in the first example (the empty string one), it fetched 170468 rows from the index, and in the second one (the 17-spaces string), it fetched only 18 rows. It seems quite normal that the first one is costier then the second one. -- Guillaume. http://www.postgresqlfr.org http://dalibo.com -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
