The table that I'm referring to is 150MB big after the vacuum (Before was 1G)...Yes, it is possible that sequential scans after vacuum full are cheaper than Index scans before vacuum full ? do you see improvement in query response times ?How does the cost differ ?Regards,Venkata B NFujitsu Australia
Well... the response time was worst than when using index.. that's very weird... I've re-created the indexes now a ran ANALYZE and the query is using again the index.. just wanted understand what happened...
