The suggested query indeed appears to be faster. Thank you. > Did you try if a properly normalized model performs better? I've tested the below schema, which doesn't appear to perform much better but has a couple other advantages for my application: ``` create table subscriptions ( email text references users(email), ucid text, primary key (email, ucid) ); explain (analyze, buffers) select cv.* from channel_videos cv, subscriptions s where cv.ucid = s.ucid and s.email = $1; ``` Is there something else here I'm missing?
