This query is really fast as you can see in my original post.

The garbage collector (DELETE FROM session WHERE session_expires <
timestamp) has to do the same sequential scan.
# EXPLAIN ANALYZE DELETE FROM session WHERE session_expires<0;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on session (cost=0.00..147919.91 rows=1 width=6) (actual
time=1473.284..1473.284 rows=0 loops=1)
Filter: (session_expires < 0)
Total runtime: 1473.315 ms
(3 rows)
On a side note however, without me doing anything the results has
changed even though pg_stat_activity table shows the same amount of
activity.
# EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM session;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on session (cost=0.00..147917.93 rows=793 width=282)
(actual time=1519.959..1612.596 rows=672 loops=1)
Total runtime: 1613.248 ms
(2 rows)
672 rows in 1.6 secs... I guess I am looking at the wrong place.
Thank you for you input.
