Sorry,I didn't understand what you mean.

Couldn't the LIMIT clause be used like the SQL statement below?


>> new=# explain analyze select 2 from analyze_word_reports where (cseid =

>> 94) limit 1;


This SQL statement is no problem under PostgreSQL 8.4, the index works well.

Yes. After removing the LIMIT clause, the performance is improved. 

The execution plan shows that the index worked.

We've noticed it, but I don't want to fix the problem by modifying the SQL until I find the cause.


The LIMIT clause changes total cost.  This is a very aggressive clause. And although it is absolutely useless in this case, Postgres does not have any logic for removing it. Postgres doesn't try to fix developer's mistakes.

I understand.

Please refer to the new execution plan (PostgreSQL 12.11) below.


new=# show enable_seqscan;

 enable_seqscan

----------------

 on

(1 行)


new=# select count(*) from analyze_word_reports;

  count

 21331980

(1 行)


new=# select count(*) from analyze_word_reports where (cseid = 94);

  count

---------

 1287156

(1 行)


new=# explain analyze select count(2) from analyze_word_reports where (cseid = 94) limit 1;

the LIMIT clause is in this case totally useless and messy, and maybe can negative impacts optimizer

Thank you for your advice. 

Please tell me how to set the table's statistics up to improve performance.


new=#  select oid from pg_class where relname = 'analyze_word_reports';

  oid  

-------

16429

(1 行)


new=# select attrelid,attname,attstattarget from pg_attribute where attrelid=16429 and attname='cseid';

attrelid | attname | attstattarget

    16429 | cseid   |            -1

"set enable_seqscan = off" works, and the performance is greatly improved, which is almost the same as PostgreSQL 8.4.

The enable_seqscan(PostgreSQL 8.4) is on, will this change have an unknown effect on other queries?
