I didn't save the corresponding printout unfortunately, but it was probably pretty similar to this: regression=# explain analyze select count(*) from (select * from tenk1 a join tenk1 b on a.unique1 = b.unique2 offset 0) ss; QUERY PLAN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aggregate (cost=2609.00..2609.01 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=869.395..869.399 rows=1 loops=1) -> Limit (cost=825.00..2484.00 rows=10000 width=488) (actual time=248.640..3368.313 rows=10000 loops=1) -> Hash Join (cost=825.00..2484.00 rows=10000 width=488) (actual time=248.609..2983.528 rows=10000 loops=1) Hash Cond: (a.unique1 = b.unique2) -> Seq Scan on tenk1 a (cost=0.00..458.00 rows=10000 width=244) (actual time=0.084..21.525 rows=10000 loops=1) -> Hash (cost=458.00..458.00 rows=10000 width=244) (actual time=248.269..248.269 rows=10000 loops=1) -> Seq Scan on tenk1 b (cost=0.00..458.00 rows=10000 width=244) (actual time=0.025..22.760 rows=10000 loops=1) Total runtime: 877.265 ms (8 rows) Time: 888.469 ms regression=# The above idea won't fix it anyway, only move the failure cases around. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
