My recommendation is not to mess with default_statistics unless you actually have to (e.g. increasing the value on all tables, withouth a query where the current value causes trouble). It increases time to plan the queries, collect statistics (ANALYZE / autovacuum) etc. regards -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
