With the code as it currently stands, effective_cache_size has some of the same properties as work_mem: the planner effectively assumes that that much space is available to *each* indexscan, and so you'd need to de-rate the setting based on the complexity of queries and the number of concurrent sessions. I'm not sure what we could do about the concurrent-sessions issue, but we could make some sort of attack on the query complexity issue by pro-rating the effective_cache_size among all the tables used by a query. > http://www.kaltenbrunner.cc/files/analyze_q20.txt > here we have a 180x(!) speedup with both disabled planner options ... There's something awfully bogus about that one --- how is it that the aggregate subplan, with the exact same plan and same number of executions in all three cases, has an actual runtime 200x more in the first case? 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
