Hello,

I wonder how the query planner works in postgresql. So, I have a query that takes 6 seconds with an index scan. However, the same query takes 0.1ms when I set disable index scan parameter.

How do I get the planner to make the right decision? Also, I ran ANALYZE command many times.

And I have an index on job_next_process_time  column but did not use it by the planner.
