List pgsql-general
We have a table with 95,000 records, indexed on an int8 type (ClientNumber).
It is currently taking up to 10 seconds to retrieve one row based upon the
following statement:

SELECT * FROM ClientTable WHERE ClientNumber=1234566789;

The client numbers are random and there is currently no locking on the
database. I am running SCO OpenServer, PostgreSQL version 6.5.3. Is there
any way we can reduce the time taken by this query?
