OFFSET does indeed force a materialize plan. This is a widely used tactic to hack the planner ('OFFSET 0'). Maybe try converting your query from something like: SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT m OFFSET N; to WITH data AS ( SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT m + n ) SELECT * FROM foo OFFSET n; I didn't try this, and it may not help, but it's worth a shot. merlin
