What we want to know about is the problem query, and without some evidence about the reason for the discrepancy between 7.4 and 8.0, we can't make any progress on that. If you don't have the ability to generate an explain report on 7.4 anymore, at least give us the full schema dump so someone else can try to reproduce the problem without unreasonable amounts of guesswork. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
