A bit more poking about shows that the major factor (which this fake
dataset anyway) is the default for effective_cache_size (changes from
128MB to 4GB in 9.4). Increasing this makes 9.2 start using the
files_in_flight index in a plain index scan too.


Arrg - misread the planner output....in 9.2 what changes is a plan that
uses an index scan on the *file_state* index (not
files_in_flight)...which appears much faster than the bitmap scan on
file_state. Apologies for the confusion.

I'm thinking that I'm seeing the effect Tom has just mentioned.

It's not using a bitmapscan in either case; it's a straight indexscan.



Right, I suspect that bloating is possibly the significant factor then - can you REINDEX?

Cheers
