Can you show the explain analyze with tbl_tracker_performance_1_idx
straight after reindex (eg. before it has been bloated again)?
Sure. Just done it now... the system has been fairly lightly loaded for
the last few hours - though I did have to change the specific number of
the parcel_id_code in the query.
fsc_log=> explain analyse select * from tbl_tracker where
parcel_id_code=92223 and exit_state is null;
QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------
Index Scan using tbl_tracker_exit_state_idx on tbl_tracker
(cost=0.00..6.34 rows=1 width=174) (actual time=0.321..1.871 rows=1 loops=1)
Index Cond: (exit_state IS NULL)
Filter: (parcel_id_code = 92223)
Total runtime: 1.905 ms
(4 rows)
And now, force it, by dropping the other index (temporarily):
fsc_log=> drop index tbl_tracker_exit_state_idx;
DROP INDEX
fsc_log=> explain analyse select * from tbl_tracker where
parcel_id_code=92223 and exit_state is null;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Index Scan using tbl_tracker_performance_1_idx on tbl_tracker
(cost=0.00..7.78 rows=1 width=174) (actual time=0.040..0.041 rows=1 loops=1)
Index Cond: (parcel_id_code = 92223)
Total runtime: 0.077 ms
(3 rows)
As far as I can tell, the query planner really is just getting it wrong.
BTW, there is a significant effect on speed caused by running the same
query twice (it pulls stuff from disk into the OS disk-cache), but I've
already accounted for this.
