Hi, I have table with several columns and need to perform fulltext search over volatile number of columns. I can't use multicolumn gist index or gin index over concatenated columns, so I've created several single column indexes (one for each column I want to search) and now I need to query them like this: to_tsvector('cs', coalesce(annotation, '')) || to_tsvector('cs', coalesce(resume, '')) || ... @@ to_tsquery('cs', 'Query text'); This query works, but EXPLAIN has shown me, that postgres doesn't use the indexes, so the query over a table with several thousands of records last very long time. I've figured out, that indexes probably cannot be used this way. What is a recommendation for this scenario? Indexes over static number of columns work fine, but I can't use them, because in my application logic I want to let user choose which columns to search. Thank you for your reply. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Fulltext---multiple-single-column-indexes-tp22611952p22611952.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
