Try testing through PGAdmin / psql using PREPARE (with the same parameter placeholders as your app uses) then EXECUTE, instead of a straight SELECT. If you get much slower execution that way, it'll be because the planner doesn't know specific values for the parameter placeholders when planning the query, so it can't make use of knowledge gained from table statistics like "almost all values in the 'archived' column are zero'. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
