Hello,
My table details:
robox=# \dS+ updates
Table "public.updates"
Column | Type | Modifiers
| Storage | Stats target | Description
---------------+---------+--------------------------------------------------
---------+----------+--------------+-------------
autoinc | integer | not null default
nextval('updates_autoinc_seq'::regclass) | plain | |
filename | text |
| extended | |
dateofrelease | date |
| plain | |
fileversion | text |
| extended | |
afile | text |
| extended | |
filehash | text |
| extended | |
active | boolean |

Indexes:
"updates_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (autoinc)
"update_filename" btree (filename)
"updates_autoinc" btree (autoinc DESC)
"updates_dateofrelease" btree (dateofrelease)
"updates_filename_dateofrelease" btree (filename, dateofrelease)
robox=# select count(autoinc) from updates;

robox=# select autoinc, filename, fileversion from updates limit 10;
autoinc | filename | fileversion

27 | 66ec4cdb8d64ca1414f75c1fb9eaa518 | 1.1.1.1
(10 rows)
I want to have an index only scan for my below query:
select autoinc, fileversion from updates where filename = 'Robox.exe' order
by autoinc desc;
I simply could not understand planner and cannot provide right index for it.
Below index names "update_filename" and "updates_autoinc" are added just for
the query that I would like to have a index only scan plan. I also failed
with following indexes
"autoinc desc, filename, fileversion"
"autoinc desc, filename"
First 3 rows in above select results are actual data. You will find that I
have inserted about 2000 rows of dummy data to have somewhat meaningful plan
for the query.
Current planner result:
robox=# vacuum full;
VACUUM
robox=# explain analyze
robox-# select autoinc, fileversion
robox-# from updates
robox-# where filename = 'Robox.exe'
robox-# order by autoinc desc;
QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
Sort (cost=12.79..12.79 rows=3 width=12) (actual time=0.047..0.047 rows=3
loops=1)
Sort Key: autoinc DESC
Sort Method: quicksort Memory: 25kB
-> Bitmap Heap Scan on updates (cost=4.30..12.76 rows=3 width=12)
(actual time=0.040..0.040 rows=3 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (filename = 'Robox.exe'::text)
Heap Blocks: exact=1
-> Bitmap Index Scan on update_filename (cost=0.00..4.30 rows=3
width=0) (actual time=0.035..0.035 rows=3 loops=1)
Index Cond: (filename = 'Robox.exe'::text)
Planning time: 1.873 ms
Execution time: 0.076 ms
(10 rows)
I appreciate any help on having right index(es) as I simply failed myself.
