Hello all,
I am trying to move from GiST intarray index to GIN intarray index, but my GIN index is not being used by the planner.
The normal query is like that
select *
from sourcetablewith_int4
where ARRAY[myint] <@ myint_array
and some_other_filters
(with GiST index everything works fine, but GIN index is not being used)
If I create the same table populating it with text[] data like
select myint_array::text[] as myint_array_as_textarray
into newtablewith_text
from sourcetablewith_int4
and then create a GIN index using this new text[] column
the planner starts to use the index and queries run with grate speed when the query looks like that:
select *
from newtablewith_text
where ARRAY['myint'] <@ myint_array_as_textarray
and some_other_filters
Where the problem can be with _int4 GIN index in this constellation?
by now the enable_seqscan i
s set to off in the configuration.
With best regards,
