But before we get to that, what do you have join_collapse_limit set to? If it's the default of 8 then the optimizer is essentially going to follow the join order you specified when you wrote the view, which could be far from optimal. It would be worth setting join_collapse_limit high enough so that this query will get flattened and see what kind of plan it comes up with then. Note that this could result in an unreasonably-large plan time, but if it results in a fast query execution we know it's just a matter of re-ordering things in the query. Also, it would be best if you could send the results of explain as an attachement that hasn't been word-wrapped. > -> Hash > Join (cost=2.38..635.29 rows=4 width=87) (actual time=6.894..289.000 >
