Re: Performance degrade in Planning Time to find appropriate Partial Index

Hi,

>From the link shared above, it looks like what Meenatchi has done should work.

Do the conditions on the partial index and query match exactly? (
greater than / greater than equals mismatch maybe?)

If conditions for those partial indexes are mutually exclusive and the
query has a matching condition then Postgres can use that index alone.
Are we missing something here?

Regards,
Nanda
