This behaviour I find unusual: usa=# explain analyze select user_id, plan_next from users_profiles where plan_next = '2003-01-01'; QUERY PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Index Scan using users_profiles_plan_next_key on users_profiles (cost=0.00..614.01 rows=228 width=8) (actual time=0.41..0.41 rows=0 loops=1) Index Cond: (plan_next = '2003-01-01'::date) Total runtime: 0.49 msec (3 rows)
usa=# explain analyze select user_id, plan_next from users_profiles where plan_next = '2003-01-01'::date - interval '1 week'; QUERY PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------- Seq Scan on users_profiles (cost=0.00..1076.08 rows=184 width=8) (actual time=109.48..109.48 rows=0 loops=1) Filter: ((plan_next)::timestamp without time zone = '2002-12-25 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) Total runtime: 109.56 msec (3 rows) Surely the planner is aware that '2003-01-01'::date - interval '1 week' is a constant???
