Does the time for commit change much if you leave out the analyze?
Yes, when I don't ANALYZE the temp table, commit time changes from 30 ms
to about 15 ms ; but the queries get horrible plans (see below) :
Fun thing is, the rowcount from a temp table (which is the problem here)
should be available without ANALYZE ; as the temp table is not concurrent,
it would be simple to inc/decrement a counter on INSERT/DELETE...
I like the temp table approach : it can replace a large, complex query
with a batch of smaller and easier to optimize queries...
EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT a.* FROM tmp t, annonces_display a WHERE a.id=t.id
ORDER BY t.sort;
