Thank you so much for the prompt reply, Tom. The index is actually fairly new
- but to be safe I issued REINDEX TABLE so that they are all clean. Here are
the sizes of each index right after REINDEX.
db=> select
pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('index_social_feed_feed_items_on_social_feed_id_and_posted_at'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
149 MB
(1 row)
db=> select
pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('index_social_feed_feed_items_on_social_feed_id'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
106 MB
(1 row)
Unfortunately, pg still thinks using
index_social_feed_feed_items_on_social_feed_id is faster although they are
about the same size :(. Any idea?
Regards,
Ken
