How many rows were delete last time you ran the query?
Chad's query looks good but here is another variation that may help.
Delete From ceroriesgo.salarios Where numero_patrono In (Select
ceroriesgo.salarios.numero_patrono From ceroriesgo.salarios Left Join
ceroriesgo.patronos Using (numero_patrono) Where
ceroriesgo.patronos.numero_patrono Is Null)
Hope that Helps,
Ted

Filter: (NOT (subplan))
SubPlan

How many rows exist in salarios, but not in patronos? How many rows are
there in salarios?
Rows:
Patronos: 1032980
Salarios: 28480200
What does the explain look like for:
delete
from ceroriesgo.salarios s
where not exists (select 1
from ceroriesgo.patronos
where numero_patrono = s.numero_patrono);
Also, is this not a case for a foreign key with a cascade delete?
No, this is not cascade delete case because I need to delete from
salarios not from patronos.
