Re: Plan differences

Declaring new indexes with COLLATE "C" and removing the old indexes fixed the like problem but it created a another - the > and < queries need a sort before passing off the the new index. Having two indexes seems to give me the best of both worlds, though obviously it's taking up (much) more space. As space isn't ever likely to be a problem, and there are no updates (only copy) to these tables, I'll keep it like this to avoid having to reload the entire DB.

I spoke a little soon - while many of the simple queries are now hitting the indexes, some of the more complicated ones are still producing substantially inferior plans, even after reloading the whole DB with an identical lc_collate and lc_ctype. Here are the plans on the original server and the new server (identical collations, lctypes and index types - btree C). I have been experimenting (accepted = accepted2, idx_accepted2_mid = idx_accepted_mid, etc.) and the tables no longer have exactly the same data but there is nothing substantially different (a few days of data more with about a year total). The oldserver query is actually working on about 3x the amount of data - I tried reducing the amounts on the new server to get done in memory but it didn't seem to help the plan.

Any suggestions on something else to try?
