If i run "explain analyze select * from dm_object_perm;" it goes on for many
hours.
Almost 39 million records is not small, especially if you run on
poor hardware[1], poor configuration[2], poor database optimization[3],
bloat[4], or a combination of these.

[1] you could tell what hardware you use

[2] you could report if your DB configuration is tuned/good
max_connections = 50
shared_buffers = 512MB
temp_buffers = 128MB
max_prepared_transactions = 55
max_fsm_pages = 153600
vacuum_cost_delay = 0
vacuum_cost_page_hit = 1
vacuum_cost_page_miss = 10
vacuum_cost_page_dirty = 20
vacuum_cost_limit = 200
effective_cache_size = 256MB
autovacuum = on
autovacuum_naptime = 1min
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold = 500
autovacuum_analyze_threshold = 250
autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.2
autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor = 0.1
autovacuum_freeze_max_age = 200000000
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay = -1
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit = -1
vacuum_freeze_min_age = 100000000

[3] you could report if the DB is regularly analyzed/vacuumed
[4] you could try a VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER and/or REINDEX on your
    large table(s) if you suspect answer to [3] is "no" -
    warning, these block some/all DB operations while running,
    and they will probably run for long in your situation
I run VACUUM yesterday.

If i try to execute a left join: "SELECT dm_object.id FROM dm_object LEFT JOIN
dm_object_perm ON dm_object.id = dm_object_perm.object_id;" my db is unusable.
EXPLAIN on this query would probably tell you PG has quite some
work to do to produce the result.


how can I fix this?
I'm wondering if your DB design (storing almost all "object x
account" combinations in object_perm) is optimal.
