Hi,
Lacking index hints I have a bit of a problem with a slow select.
select
pic.objectid as pic_objectid
,pu.objectid as pu_objectid
,ppcr.preproc_me as pul_preproc_me
,pp.price_amount as pp_price_amount
,pim.aut_item_container as pim_aut_item_container
,COALESCE((select coalesce(pcg.name_preferred, pcg.name) from
codec_gfx pcg where pcg.objectid = pim.aut_codec_gfx), 'unknown') as
pcg_name
,COALESCE((select pis.name from item_snd pis where pis.objectid =
pim.aut_codec_snd), 'unknown') as pis_name
-- ,(select pii2.price_arr from item_image pii2 where
pii2.item_common = pic.objectid) as pii_price_arr
,pii.price_arr as pii_price_arr
from
(
select
ppcr.item_common
,pul.preproc_me as preproc_me
,pul.ul_finished_at as ul_finished_at
,pul.to_curator_at as to_curator_at
from
pic_curate ppc
,pic_curate_row ppcr
,uploading pul
where
ppc.user_curator = 2 AND
ppcr.pic_curate = ppc.objectid AND
ppcr.item_common = pul.item_common
) ppcr
,item_common pic
left outer join item_movieclip pim on (pim.item_common = pic.objectid)
left outer join item_soundclip pisc on (pisc.item_common =
pic.objectid)
left outer join item_image pii on (pii.item_common = pic.objectid)
,user pu
,pricing pp
where
pic.objectid = ppcr.item_common AND
pu.objectid = pic.user AND
pp.item_common = ppcr.item_common AND
date_trunc ('sec', current_timestamp) BETWEEN pp.startdate and
pp.stopdate
order by
ppcr.item_common
Item_common is the main table. It has some 10M rows

Without improvement i tried

There are several selects looking similar to this in our application
that suddenly jumped from a handfull of ms to many seconds. Can I
workaround this by config instead of rewriting the sql to an
inrecognizable nightmare? Preferrable I'd like to turn off full table
scan completely (where indexes are present), but that didn't bite.
Thanks,
Marcus
