Alex, what text you're indexing ? I don't believe you have meaningful very long words ( > 2047 characters). Do you really need multicolumn index ? I'd recommend to separate problem - create column fts for tsvector('english',full_listing), create index on it and try full-text query. The way you're doing imply calling to_tsvector every time you search, which can be very costly. Olegk On Sun, 1 Feb 2009, Alex wrote:
So this seems to be because the result size is too big. I still don't know why it is looping through every record and printing a warning, but adding a LIMIT makes the queries complete in a reasonable time (although not all that fast). However I need to sort and also have many other facets that may or may not be included in the query. Adding a sort makes it load every record again and take forever. I tried to create an index including all of the fields I query on to see if that would work, but I get an error the the index row is too large: => create index master_index on source_listings(geo_lat, geo_lon, price, bedrooms, region, city, listing_type, to_tsvector('english', full_listing), post_time); NOTICE: word is too long to be indexed DETAIL: Words longer than 2047 characters are ignored.

NOTICE: word is too long to be indexed DETAIL: Words longer than 2047 characters are ignored. ERROR: index row requires 13356 bytes, maximum size is 8191 Any ideas about how to resolve this?
