For example if > there are foreign keys between the tables, 9.6 is using that for the > estimates (unlike 9.5). And so on. Maybe. This smells like bug or missing index. Key for me is: -> Seq Scan on tblpuorderstatus os (cost=0.00..96501.53 rows=11185842 width=8) (actual time=0.011..822.937 rows=11182962 I can't see why any reasonable plan path would choose this unless the index on "vip_order_id" is missing (my money is on this actually) or there is a gross preference to prefer parallel scans over traditional plan choices irrespective of cost. I'm rolling out 9.6 next week and so have a particular interest in this. :-) I tend also utilize a lot of cascading semi-joins and so am curious to see where this turns up. Ravi, if you can arrange for screen share or some similar way of looking at this system I'd be happy to help you trouble shoot, gratis. merlin -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
