I am trying to optimize a delete query that's currently taking 4 hours
to run. My first step was to add some indexes on some of my FK's. That
sped up my select queries by as much as ~20x. From 3.5 sec to < 0.25
sec. They didn't help my delete query. I ran an explain analyze on the
delete query and the records got deleted after 4 hours but it never
showed me the query plan. I'm using 8.0.1 on WinXP accessing it with
pgAdminIII.

FWIW, the DB has a lot of FK's and some of them (the ones on my big
tables 1-10 million records) have ON DELETE CASCADE triggers.

Any suggestions for how to get the explain analyze output?

Mike
