Hello Stelian,
Have you tried to use func_table module?, I think it will help you to eliminate all the joins.

The query as it is takes approx. 35 seconds, which is very bad. If I
take out the line:
LEFT JOIN product_metadata pm4 ON p.product_id = pm4.product_id AND
pm4.name::text = 'product_title'::text
then the time is under 1 second.
Here you can see the plan for the query (as it is here, i.e. when it
takes a lot of time): http://explain.depesz.com/s/K9s
As far as I can see, the wrong index is used. In the lines
"-> Bitmap Heap Scan on product_metadata pm4
(cost=6014.11..257694.54 rows=579474 width=8) (actual
time=282.364..13005.344 rows=557834 loops=1)"
"Recheck Cond: ((name)::text = 'product_title'::text)"
"Buffers: shared read=175851"
"-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_product_metadata_03
(cost=0.00..5869.24 rows=579474 width=0) (actual
time=222.724..222.724 rows=557834 loops=1)"
"Index Cond: ((name)::text = 'product_title'::text)"
"Buffers: shared read=3953"
it can be seen that it uses idx_product_metadata_03 which is on (name,
value). Shouldn't it use index_product_metadata_02 which is on
(product_id, name)?
Or is there another reason why this query is so slow?
I have changed some of the default settings of Postgres as follows:
random_page_cost = 1.4
cpu_index_tuple_cost = 0.00001
effective_cache_size = 256MB
work_mem = 300MB
If you need any other information, let me know.
Thanks in advance!
