Looks about right to me. Note that some of what you are calling "executor overhead" might also be classed as "gettimeofday overhead". The measured difference between two successive gettimeofday readings presumably includes the actual userland runtime plus the equivalent of one gettimeofday call; but we actually did two calls. IOW the actual time to get in and out of a node is going to be a shade more than is reported. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
