Hi,
I wonder about differences in performance between two scenarios:
Background:
Table A, ~50,000 records
Table B, ~3,000,000 records (~20 cols)
Table C, ~30,000,000 records (~10 cols)
a query every 3sec. with limit 10
Table C depends on Table B wich depends on Table A, int8 foreign key, btree index
* consider it a read only scenario (load data only in night, with time for vacuum analyze daily)
* im required to show records from Table C, but also with some (~5cols) info from Table B
* where clause always contains the foreign key to Table A
* where clause may contain further 1-10 search parameter
Scenario A)
simply inner join Table B + C
Scenario B)
with use of trigger on insert/update I could push the required information from table B down to table C.
-> so i would only require to select from table C.
My question:
1) From your experience ... how much faster (approximately) in percent do you regard Scenario B faster than A ?
2) any other tips for such a read only scenario
Thx for any attention :-)
Walter
