…
################################ ################################### -> Index Scan using idx_l_partkeylineitem000x on lineitem (cost = 0.57..97.65 rows = 26 width = 36) (current time = 23.615..419.113 rows = 30 loops = 26469) Index Cond: (l_partkey = part.p_partkey) ################################################## ################# According to the documentation, one should multiply the Actual Time by the number of Loops. That is: 419113 ms -> 419113/1000/60 = 6.9 minutes * 26469 (loops) = 182.6 minutes.
But how does this stretch take 182.6 minutes, if the entire query ran in 66 minutes?
………………. thank you and best regards [] 's Neto
Neto,
The time you see there is in ms, so the point (‘.’) you see is the digital point.
So, it is 419.113ms or a little less than half a second (0.419sec).
