I don't think you want the group by in that first query.

Heh, I tried to simply the example, but in reality that = becomes an in clause of multiple values. So the group by is needed.




postgres=# explain analyze select min(id) from delayed_jobs where strand='sis_batch:account:15' group by strand;
