I have some simple query (executed with time command): time psql -c 'explain analyze SELECT te.idt FROM t_positions AS te JOIN t_st AS stm ON (te.idt=stm.idt AND 4=stm.idm) WHERE te.idtr IN (347186)' QUERY PLAN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nested Loop (cost=0.00..33.33 rows=2 width=4) (actual time=0.297..0.418 rows=3 loops=1) -> Index Scan using t_positions_index1 on t_positions te (cost=0.00..8.43 rows=3 width=4) (actual time=0.140..0.148 rows=3 loops=1) Index Cond: (idtr = 347186) -> Index Scan using t_st_index4 on t_st stm (cost=0.00..8.29 rows=1 width=4) (actual time=0.078..0.079 rows=1 loops=3) Index Cond: ((stm.idt = te.idt) AND (4 = stm.idm)) Total runtime: 0.710 ms (6 rows) real 0m3.309s user 0m0.002s sys 0m0.002s Why there is so big difference between explain analyze (0.710 ms) and real execution time (3309 ms)? Any suggestions?
