Sorry. It's been suggested before, but it would be a lot of new mechanism and expense in the planner, and for most queries it'd just slow things down to try to do that. > I have around 30 clients running the same query with different > parameters, but the query always returns 1000 rows (boundary values > are pre-calculated,so it's like traversal of the equiwidth histogram > if it comes to srcid/source_pk) and the rows from parallel queries > cannot be overlapping.

Can you show us the query plan for the slow cases? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
