Good day, I have noticed that my server never uses indexing. No matter what I do. As an example I took a table with about 650 rows, having a parentid field with an index on parentid. EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM layertype where parentid = 300; On my laptop the explain analyze looks like this: "Index Scan using fki_layertype_parentid on layertype (cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=109)" " Index Cond: (parentid = 300)" and on the problem server: "Seq Scan on layertype (cost=0.00..20.39 rows=655 width=110)" " Filter: (parentid = 300)" ......... I have dropped the index, recreated it, vacuumed the table, just about everything I could think of, And there is just no way I can get the query planner to use the index.
