Hello
2009/12/29 Michael Fork <mfork00@xxxxxxxxx>:
> I have an index scan on a custom function that is returning a wildly incorrect row estimate that is throwing off the rest of the query planning. The result of the function is roughly unique - there are a handful with multiple entries - but the planner is estimating 227,745 rows. I re-ran ANALYZE on the table and the results did not change. Any suggestions on how to get more accurate planner result?

try
CREATE FUNCTION parsecardidfromreferencecode(text) RETURNS text AS $_$
SELECT SUBSTRING($1 FROM 3 FOR 13);
$_$ LANGUAGE sql;
