We recently upgraded one of the instances from 9.6.3 to 9.6.12 and seeing following issue that occurs for few cases.
I have tried running analyze on the table with different values from 1000 - 5000 but it doesn't seem to help the issue. There is some skew in a_id but the combination index i_tc_adid_tid btree (a_id, id) makes the index unique as it includes primary key.
SELECT count(*) FROM tc WHERE ((tc.a_id = $1)) AND ((tc.m_id = $2)) AND ((tc.ag_id is not null)) AND ((
tc.id in ($3))) AND ((
tc.pt in ($4, $5, $6)))
Indexes on the table:
i_tc_adid_tid btree (a_id, id)
pk_id PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
i_agi_tc_tcn btree (ag_id, tname) ---> index that gets used
