Column | Type | Modifiers

action_id | bigint | not null default nextval('i2birst_reg_staging_action_id_seq'::regclass)
reg_uid | integer | not null
evt_uid | integer | not null
evt_id | character varying(10) | not null

Indexes:
"sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (action_id)
"sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test_idx" btree (status, evt_id, category)
Check constraints:
"sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test_status_check" CHECK (status = ANY (ARRAY[0, 1, 2, 3]))
Even if add an index on evt_id and status same table scan
But
select count(*) from sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test;
count
-------
6860
select count(*) from sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test where evt_id = 'ACSF17'
and status=0 ;
count
-------
4239
So I can see why the planner is choosing a table scan
My question is: I suspect the limit simply limits the fethching to the first n-records retrieved and has no implications whatsoever on the planner, meaning the planner ignores it. Am I right or wrong ?
LIMIT is last clause and it is processed after aggregation.
probably you would select count(*) from (select * from sp_i2birst_reg_staging_test where evt_id = 'ACSF17' LIMIT 10) s;
more you have not index on evt_id column - there is composite index, but the chance can be low
