I'd have expected it to use a nestloop with inner index scan on article_rub_id_index. You haven't done anything odd like disable nestloop, have you? What plan do you get if you turn off enable_hashjoin? (If it's a merge join, then turn off enable_mergejoin and try again.) Also, could we see EXPLAIN ANALYZE not just EXPLAIN output for all these cases? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
