Hi,

I have a java app that uses hibernate to do queries.

One query on a 6.5 millions records takes about 15 seconds while the 
same one (take from the sql that shows in the consol - I configured 
hibernate to show_sql) takes about 50 ms when done with pgadmin3.

This is a simple select. Here is the log of pgsql:
<postgres%patient_record> LOG:  00000: statement: select notevalue0_.id 
as id, notevalue0_.value_note as value2_3_, notevalue0_.actif as 
actif3_, notevalue0_.id_note as id4_3_, notevalue0_.id_field_name as 
id5_3_ from note.note_value notevalue0_ where notevalue0_.id_note=$1 and 
notevalue0_.actif=1

The $1 value is a simple integer and is a foreign key for another table. 
There were 4 rows only meeting this criteria. Can you explain to me the 
executor statistics? Why does it do 44305 read?

This query will be a stopper for us if not faster... :-(  Apart from 
this, we love postgres...

Thanks for any help.
