I believe your problem is that the index isn't helping much, it's probably hurting you in fact. If you cluster over ip, however, the scan will go almost sequentially, and there will be no wasted bytes in the pages fetched, which will be much friendlier on your I/O subsystem. If I were in your shoes, I'd cluster each of the monthly tables as they become inactive. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
