Hi Everyone,
select t.ticket_id ,
tb.transmission_id
from ticket t,
transmission_base tb
where t.latest_transmission_id = tb.transmission_id
and t.ticket_number = tb.ticket_number
and tb.parse_date > ('2014-07-31');
Execution plan: http://explain.depesz.com/s/YAak
Indexes on ticket :
"ticket_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (ticket_id) CLUSTER
"ticket_by_latest_transmission" btree (latest_transmission_id)
"ticket_by_ticket_number" btree (ticket_number)
This query only returns some portions of rows from ticket table.
The question is, Why does postgres need to get all the rows from ticket table in order to complete this query?
Can't postgres use indexes to get only needed rows on ticket table?
I try set seqscan to off, but still index scan try to get all rows on ticket table.
Here's the execution plan : http://explain.depesz.com/s/abH2
Thanks
