The 8.4 machine was upgraded to 9.3 about a year ago and we have no 8.4 backups so it's difficult if not impossible to recreate the 8.4 environment AFAIK. One of our developers pointed out the discrepancy in execution times. I decomposed a slow view and found out that it consists of a view calling a view calling a view (3 deep).

I'm suspicious that the underlying cause might have to do with recent versions being warier about optimizing sub-selects containing volatile functions than 8.4 was. However, that theory doesn't seem to explain the horribly bad join size estimates you're showing. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
