That is the reason, I have planned not to run ANALYZE. I think perhaps you're misunderstanding what ANALYZE does. Did that vendor specifically tell you to disable ANALYZE? Unless they're doing some analysis of the distribution of data and creating their own statistics (remotely possible but highly unusual), the statistics generated by ANALYZE will be required to allow the queries they've written to execute efficiently. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
