The documentation states that "The extent of analysis can be controlled by adjusting the default_statistics_target configuration variable". It looks like I can tell Postgres to create more histograms with more bins, and more distinct values. This implicitly means that Postgres will use a larger random subset to calculate statistics. However, this is not what I want. My data may be quite skewed, and I want full control over the size of the sample. I want to explicitly tell Postgres to analyze the whole table. How can I accomplish that? -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.nabble.com/How-to-tell-ANALYZE-to-collect-statistics-from-the-whole-table-tp5835339.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - performance mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
