Hi all,
I seem to remember seeing something related to this on this list in the
past, but I can't find it now. So I'll be brief for starters.
I have a log table that's getting several thousand inserts per day, properly
vacuumed/analysed at night, etc. A query like this:
select * from log where date_log = now();
refuses to use the index on date_log (the timestamp).
explain says this:
Seq Scan on log (cost=0.00..2053.26 rows=8 width=80)
If I do 'set enable_seqscan to off', it still won't use the index.
Does this ring a bell with anyone? I can supply lots more data if needed...
Oh.. :-) This is PG_7.1.2 on Linux 2.2.
TIA
