Hi Again,
I have not gone through your explain plans for both, will it be possible for you to take diff of the both plans. It will give some insight about how things are going and where the problem is.
Alternatively
I will suggest Reindex and execute ANALYZE command to regenerate stats .
Regards,
Ikram
I've only one instance of PG in that server. Means only one postgresql.conf for both databases.On Friday, 26 July, 2024 at 11:12:34 am IST, Muhammad Ikram <mmikram@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi,Could you perform diff on postgresql.conf file to see whether values are same for work_mem, shared_buffers, maintenance_work_mem and other related parameters?Regards,IkramHello,Using PG 11.11, One PG Cluster, Windows 2019 Server Standard, Two databases with identical data.1.
