Hi, We migrate from Oracle to Postgresql14.8, one SQL has regression in Postgres run in 5800 milliseconds in Postgresql v14.8, but the same SQL got done in several hundred milliseconds in Oracle database. With multiple table JOINs, if the join condition is tablea.column1=tableb.column1, optimizer will use the index to filter data in nest loops, but if tablea.column1=regexp_replace(tableb.column1….), Optimizer will not be able to use the index on tablea.column1, then it do a table scan and nestloop to produce a lot rows then use tablea.column1=regexp_replace(tableb.column1….) as a filter. As a workaround we create a view then use tablea.column1=view.column1
that works. Is it expected ? details as below. SELECT DISTINCT a.xxx, b.xxx as TOLLFREE FROM tableA a, tableB b WHERE
a.column1 = regexp_replace(b.column1,'[^0-9]','') AND b.column2 = $1 AND b.column3= $2 AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM tableC c WHERE c.xxid = b.xxid AND c.xxtype = case when b.col4 = 1 then 'TollFree' else 'Toll' end AND c.xxid = $3) Unique (cost=423374.60..423377.87 rows=436 width=21) (actual time=6070.963..6071.054 rows=395 loops=1) Buffers: shared hit=148 -> Sort (cost=423374.60..423375.69 rows=436 width=21) (actual time=6070.963..6070.992 rows=397 loops=1) Sort Key: a.xx, b.xx Sort Method: quicksort Memory: 56kB Buffers: shared hit=148
