It would probably be better to just use ILIKE rather than upper(), so `status ILIKE '%captured%'`, which can benefit from an index on "status" itself. Also as this is VIEW TRIGRAM nor normal indexes don't get used. > There is no problem in general using trigram indexes (or any other index types) on views. Maybe your view has particular features which inhibit the use of the index, but you haven't given any information which would be useful for assessing that. Did you try an index, or just assume it wouldn't work without trying? Cheers, Jeff >
