Can you force it with enable_seqscan = off? If so, then positionsel isn't estimating a small enough number of matches to make an indexscan look useful. (Which, for a "left of" operator, is hardly surprising.) If not, there's something wrong with your opfamily declarations. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
