Query optimisation and sorting on external merge

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm trying to optimise a query at the moment, I've added some new
indexes to stop seq scans, but I'm now trying to work out if I can
stop a join using external sort to speed up the query. I've included
an explain analyze below and would appreciate any pointers to gaps in
my understanding.

explain analyze SELECT p.usercompanyid, 'people' AS type, p.id,
(p.firstname::text || ' '::text) || p.surname::text AS name,
p.assigned_to, p.owner, p.organisation_id, phr.username, p.private
   FROM people p
   LEFT JOIN organisation_roles pr ON p.organisation_id =
pr.organisation_id AND pr.read
   LEFT JOIN hasrole phr ON pr.roleid = phr.roleid;

               QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
