Re: Trigram is slow when 10m rows - Mailing list pgsql-general

Thanks Oleg.

I've increased work_mem to 128MB, now the query falls down to 1.7s,
faster but still not good enough.

Is there any other thing I can do about it?

test=# explain analyze select * from mytable where title ilike 'x264';
                                                              QUERY PLAN

 Bitmap Heap Scan on mytable  (cost=462.69..5639.67 rows=1380
width=83) (actual time=1754.656..1754.656 rows=0 loops=1)
   Recheck Cond: (title ~~* 'x264'::text)
   Rows Removed by Index Recheck: 1220793
