Hi!
I've have this table:
TABLE BB : There isn't any primary key,
and is it more or less order (I mean, tt always is increased in each
row, and id is nearly ordered)
ex:
id, op, atr, tt
1
0 X, 1
2
0 A 3
3 0
X 5
..........
1 0
X 51
.......
85 1 l
150
86 2 po 155
2 0
X 178
87 3 1
189
....
I VACUUM ANALYZE each 10.000 inserts more or less
in
my case op only can have 3 values;
I've created an index on (id,op,tt) to
improve the next query, that is executed very often:
"SELECT * FROM BB
WHERE id="+ id+" AND op=0 order by tt desc;";
(because the only row I
need is the one that has the highest tt)
but, after an
hour running the program (more than 90.000 rows), I stopped it and
"EXPAIN SELECT * FROM BB WHERE id="+ id+" AND op=0 order by tempst
desc;";
But, my sorprise was that the index wasn't be used. Always do a
Seq Scan.
Have I to define the index in other columns? Have I to
VACUUM ANALYZE more often?
There is other option to avoid the
sort that is done because of ORDER BY?
Thanks a
lot
yours,
Cris..
