I have most (if not all) of my constraint defined with the DEFERRABLE
INITIALLY DEFERRED clause.
I have done this as I have not a direct control on the order of the
SQL statements that the Cayenne library sends to the server, and this
will avoid all the constraint violations inside a single transaction.
How can I try to isolate the trigger taking so long, in oder to
understand which is/are the missing index(es)?
Best regards,
Giulio Cesare
