I'm not interested in optimizing this query.....it's fast and efficient. However, the planner thinks that it is going to return a million rows when it is only going to return one thousand. When this query is used as an element of a BIGGER query, that causes me all sorts of planner issues.... That's the problem I am trying to solve...why the planner is 3 orders of magnitude off in row estimation. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
