EXPLAIN shows that the 9.4 queryplaner has a different plan:

I tried REINDEX, it had no effect on the queryplan.


> Do the systems differ in any other way, especially storage?
The old Server is over 5 years old, so the new hardware is totally 
differnt:  12 CPU, 64GB RAM, RAID6 on SAS, virtual Hyper-V machine

Any more suggestions?


Rainer

 

 

You should run EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) instead of just EXPLAIN.

 

Also, please show memory-related and query tuning config parameters.
