I assume that this limits the resultset to a LIMIT. That is not what I was hoping for. I was hoping for a way to
scrolllthrought the whole tables with orders.
I have tested, and if one really wants the whole table the query with "set enable_seqscan = on" lasts 137 secs, the
querywith "set enable_seqscan = off" lasts 473 secs, so (alas), the planner is right.
I sure would like to have ISAM like behaviour once in a while.
