Hopefully you realize that each of those indexes will have a new entry inserted whenever you update a row. If your indexes are that expensive to maintain, you want to go out of your way update rows only when something actually changes, which is not the case for your second update statement yet. I don't recall seeing the table definition yet. Could we see that, with the indexes? Also, have you tried that CLUSTER yet? Syntax: CLUSTER shawns_data_pkey ON shawns_data; ANALYZE shawns_data; (or VACUUM ANALYZE) This will clean up index bloat. -Kevin ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
