I have the following query: *explain* (*analyze*, costs, timing) *SELECT* rr.* *FROM* rpc rpc
*INNER* *JOIN* rr rr *ON* rr.uuid = rpc.rr_id *INNER* *JOIN* rs rs *ON* rs.r_id = rpc.r_id *INNER* *JOIN* *role* r *ON* r.uuid = rs.r_id *LEFT* *JOIN* spc spc *ON* spc.rr_id = rpc.rr_id *WHERE* rs.s_id = 'caa767b8-8371-43a3-aa11-d1dba1893601' *and* spc.s_id = 'caa767b8-8371-43a3-aa11-d1dba1893601' *and* spc.rd_id = '9f33c45a-90c2-4e05-a42e-048ec1f2b2fa' *AND* rpc.rd_id = '9f33c45a-90c2-4e05-a42e-048ec1f2b2fa' *AND* rpc.c_id = '9fd29fdc-15fd-40bb-b85d-8cfe99734987' *and* spc.c_id = '9fd29fdc-15fd-40bb-b85d-8cfe99734987' *AND* rr.b_id = 'xyz' *AND* (('GLOBAL' = ' NO_PROJECT_ID + "' ) *OR* (rr. p_id = 'GLOBAL')) *AND* spc.permission_type *IS* *null* *and* spc. is_active = *true* *AND* rpc.is_active = *true* *AND* rr.is_active = *true* *AND* rs.is_active = *true* *AND* r.is_active = *true* I don't think it is super complex. But when I run explain analyze on this I get the following: Planning Time: 578.068 ms Execution Time: 0.113 ms This is a huge deviation in planning vs. execution times. The explain plan looks good since the execution time is < 1ms. It doesn't matter though since the planning time is high. I don't see anything in the explain analyze output that tells me why the planning time is high. On average, the tables being joined have 3 indexes/table. How can I debug this? Been stuck on this for weeks. Any help is appreciated. Thank you! Saurabh
