Re: delete duplicates takes too long

I cant use a unique index because i only want to check for duplicates where processed = 2, for simplicity i did not include that condition in the example.

Then why not have a unique index on those rows together?

Have you tried throwing more work_mem at the problem?

The other method to do this uses no group by but a join clause.
Depending on the number of dupes it can be faster or slow.

delete from table x where x.id in
   (select a.id from table a jon table b on (a.somefield=b.somefield
and a.id < b.id))

Or something like that.
