Hello, I was wondering if a simple trigger inserting ID values in a dedicated table with an UNIQUE key would have a chance to give similar performances than you trigger checking ID with SELECT count(1) > 1 FROM tabpart WHERE id = NEW.id knowing that both triggers gives the same concurrency benefits ... Find attached a little test case on my PostgreSQL 11beta2 on x86_64-w64-mingw32, compiled by gcc.exe (x86_64-win32-seh-rev1, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 7.2.0, 64-bit inserting 100.000 lignes in a non partitionned table with a unique KEY takes 627 ms inserting 100.000 lignes in a partitionned table (10 part) with "SELECT COUNT" trigger takes 6696 ms inserting 100.000 lignes in a partitionned table (10 part) with "INSERT ID values" trigger takes 1634 ms Is that ratio the same on a Linux box ? I'm suspecting parsing time for "SELECT count(1) > 1 FROM tabpart WHERE id = NEW.id", is that possible ? test_gbl_index.sql <http://www.postgresql-archive.org/file/t348768/test_gbl_index.sql> Regards PAscal -- Sent from: http://www.postgresql-archive.org/PostgreSQL-admin-f2076596.html
