Thanks for this. So here’s a quick update… I removed all the indexes that are there and added one on: (account_id, taskable_type, taskable_id, assigned_to_user_id, archived, complete, completed_at, due_on) We search for tasks that are complete or incomplete, so we wouldn’t want a partial index there… but I _think_ changing the index to be partial where archived != ’t’ would be beneficial; I’ll have to look. As of today, only about 10% of the tasks are archived=’t’ – though that’s still ~1 million rows at this point. That helped the query plans big time, and adding more RAM so the indexes fit in memory instead of swapping led to major improvements. So thank you for the suggestions :) I’ve manually vacuumed and analyzed a few times, and the estimates are always pretty far off. How do you suggest increasing the stats for the table? Just increase it, vacuum, and see if the stats look better?
