We are in the process of migrating from Oracle to Postgres and the following query does much less work with Oracle vs Postgres.
explain (analyze, buffers)
select favoritegr0_.FAVORITE_GROUP_SID as favorite1_2_, favoritegr0_.CHANGED as changed2_2_, favoritegr0_.TYPE_DISCRIMINATOR as type_dis3_2_,
favoritegr0_.GROUP_NAME as group_na4_2_, favoritegr0_.IS_DELETED as is_delet5_2_, favoritegr0_.LAST_USED as last_use6_2_, favoritegr0_.POSITION as position7_2_,

order by favoritegr0_.POSITION desc;
Here is the plan in Postgres. It did 1426 shared block hits. If you look at this plan it is not pushing filtering into the NOT IN subquery- it is fully resolving that part of the query driving off where UNIQUE_NAME = 'Florida'.

If I compare that to the plan Oracle uses it pushes the favoritegr0_.FAVORITE_GROUP_SID predicate into the NOT IN. I'm able to get a similar plan with Postgres if I change the NOT IN to a NOT EXISTS:
explain (analyze, buffers)
select favoritegr0_.FAVORITE_GROUP_SID as favorite1_2_, favoritegr0_.CHANGED as changed2_2_, favoritegr0_.TYPE_DISCRIMINATOR as type_dis3_2_,
favoritegr0_.GROUP_NAME as group_na4_2_, favoritegr0_.IS_DELETED as is_delet5_2_, favoritegr0_.LAST_USED as last_use6_2_, favoritegr0_.POSITION as position7_2_,
favoritegr0_.PRISM_GUID as prism_gu8_2_, favoritegr0_.PRODUCT_SID as product_9_2_,
favoritegr0_.PRODUCT_VIEW as product10_2_, favoritegr0_.USAGE_TYPE as usage_t11_2_, favoritegr0_.ROW_VERSION as row_ver12_2_
from cf0.FAVORITE_GROUP favoritegr0_
where 'FORMS.WESTLAW' = favoritegr0_.PRODUCT_SID
and favoritegr0_.PRODUCT_VIEW in ('DefaultProductView')
and not exists (
select 'x'
from cf0.FAVORITE_GROUP_MEMBER favoriteen1_
cross join cf0.CATEGORY_PAGE categorypa2_
where favoriteen1_.CATEGORY_PAGE_SID=categorypa2_.CATEGORY_PAGE_SID
and categorypa2_.UNIQUE_NAME='Florida'
and categorypa2_.IS_DELETED=0
and favoriteen1_.IS_DELETED=0
and favoritegr0_.FAVORITE_GROUP_SID = favoriteen1_.FAVORITE_GROUP_SID)
and favoritegr0_.IS_DELETED=0
and (favoritegr0_.USAGE_TYPE=0 or favoritegr0_.USAGE_TYPE is null)
and favoritegr0_.PRISM_GUID='ia74483420000012ca23eacf87bb0ed56'
order by favoritegr0_.POSITION desc;
Here you can see the query did 5 shared block hits- much better than the plan above. It's pushing the predicate into the NOT EXISTS with a Nested Loop Anti Join.

Is Postgres able to drive the query the same way with the NOT IN as the NOT EXISTS is doing or is that only available if the query has a NOT EXISTS? I don't see an option to push predicate or something like that using pg_hint_plan. I'm not sure if there are any optimizer settings that may tell Postgres to treat the NOT IN like a NOT EXISTS when optimizing this type of query.
Thanks in advance
Steve
