Unfortunately, there is no information about the plan for the trigger.
With extra index:
test=*# create index idx_b on b(i);
CREATE INDEX
Time: 10,645 ms
test=*# explain analyze delete from a;
QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Delete on a (cost=0.00..140.00 rows=10000 width=6) (actual time=18.881..18.881 rows=0 loops=1)
-> Seq Scan on a (cost=0.00..140.00 rows=10000 width=6) (actual time=0.015..3.800 rows=10000 loops=1)
Trigger for constraint b_i_fkey: time=231.084 calls=10000
Total runtime: 254.033 ms
without index:
test=*# explain analyze delete from a;
QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Delete on a (cost=0.00..140.00 rows=10000 width=6) (actual time=19.090..19.090 rows=0 loops=1)
-> Seq Scan on a (cost=0.00..140.00 rows=10000 width=6) (actual time=0.014..3.868 rows=10000 loops=1)
Trigger for constraint b_i_fkey: time=9823.762 calls=10000
Total runtime: 9846.789 ms
(4 rows)
The same plan, but not the same execution time. Bad...
(version ist 9.1.0)
