I have a horribly-performing query similar to below, and I'd like to convert it to use a "WITH mytable as ( ... ) " without having to re-architect my code. For some reason, using a WITH prefix seems to generally work much faster than IN() sub clause even allowing identical results. (runs in 1/4th the time)
Presumably it's faster because WITH is currently an optimization fence. Instead of WITH, you could also do
WHERE (classes.school_id, classes.building_id) IN( SELECT a, b FROM unnest(...) u(a, b))
