The few 'obvious' things I see : ID and POLLID aren't of the same type (numeric vs bigint) TTIME isn't indexed. And as a general matter, you should stick to native datatypes if you don't need numeric. But as said in the other answer, maybe you should redo this schema and use more consistent datatypes Anyway, from what I remenber, it's not advised to set up shared buffers that high for windows (I don't do so much windows myself, so maybe someone will be better informed). Anyway you can start by correcting the schema… On Friday 31 July 2009 07:45:55 pari krishnan wrote: > Dear All, > > > We are > using Postgres 8.3.7 in our java application.
