Thank you all, You were right on the analyze. Insert statement
with an aggregated subquery had a problem on an empty table. I had to change the queries to do a simple insert then analyze
on the table followed by an update with an aggregated sub query. That
goes thru very fast. -mridula From: Віталій Тимчишин
[mailto:tivv00@xxxxxxxxx] 2010/2/2 Mridula Mahadevan <mmahadevan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi, I
am running a bunch of queries within a function, creating some temp tables and
populating them. When the data exceeds say, 100k the queries start getting
really slow and timeout (30 min). when these are run outside of a
transaction(in auto commit mode), they run in a few seconds. Any ideas on what
may be going on and any postgresql.conf parameters etc that might help? Thanks Have you tried to analyze temp tables after you've populated
them? Because AFAIK it won't do it automatically for tables created, filled and
then used in same transaction. |
