Re: Very slow update statement on 40mio rows

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

 



Hello Kevin,
not updating every row which doesn't need the update solved the problem!
Your query took only 1 minute. :)

Thank you so much for the fast response, have a great weekend!

PS: When you switch to "TEXT" on the explain URL you can see the final
runtime which was 66 minutes with the original statement.

Best regards,
Florian
