It couldn't run very long if those rowcounts were accurate. How many rows in "cnts" really? How big is "alog", and how many of its rows join to "cnts"? While I'm looking at this, what's the real datatypes of the uid columns? Those explicit coercions seem a bit fishy. > How can I bring it back to working? It's premature to ask for a solution when we don't understand the problem. regards, tom lane
