Well I did not mentioned that it all runs on Virtual Machine so thats why 2.5GB. I could not assigned more. Today I have tried the VM machine on PC where I assigned 9GB of memory to this VM. There I set the shared_buffers on 900MB, but there was not any improvement. > What version of Postgres is this? I use 9.0 and I also tried Vacuum FULL, but it did not help. It is very strange. I have tried everythink, but nothing helped :-( Any other ideas? -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/GIN-index-not-used-tp4344826p4359235.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
