Why Index is not used

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear all,

Today I got to run a query internally from my application by more than 10 connections.

But The query performed very badly. A the data size of tables are as :

pdc_uima=#  select pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size('clause2'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
5858 MB
(1 row)

pdc_uima=# select pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size('svo2')); pg_size_pretty
----------------
4719 MB
(1 row)


I explain the query as after making the  indexes as :

pdc_uima=# explain select c.clause, s.* from clause2 c, svo2 s where c.clause_id=s.clause_id and s.doc_id=c.source_id and c.
pdc_uima-# sentence_id=s.sentence_id ;
QUERY PLAN --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Merge Join  (cost=5673831.05..34033959.87 rows=167324179 width=2053)
Merge Cond: ((s.clause_id = c.clause_id) AND (s.doc_id = c.source_id) AND (s.sentence_id = c.sentence_id)) -> Index Scan using idx_svo2 on svo2 s (cost=0.00..24489343.65 rows=27471560 width=1993)
  ->  Materialize  (cost=5673828.74..6071992.29 rows=31853084 width=72)
        ->  Sort  (cost=5673828.74..5753461.45 rows=31853084 width=72)
              Sort Key: c.clause_id, c.source_id, c.sentence_id
-> Seq Scan on clause2 c (cost=0.00..770951.84 rows=31853084 width=72)



Indexes are :

CREATE INDEX idx_clause ON clause2 USING btree (clause_id, source_id, sentence_id); CREATE INDEX idx_svo2 ON svo2 USING btree (clause_id, doc_id, sentence_id);

I don't know why it not uses the index scan for clause2 table.

Any suggestions to tune the query.


Thanks & best Regards,
Adarsh Sharma
