Hi,
>You _have_ actually run ANALYZE on the table, right?
snet=# vacuum analyze t2002_06;
VACUUM
snet=# vacuum analyze;
VACUUM
snet=# explain analyze select * from t2002_06 WHERE station = 'SAMI4';
NOTICE: QUERY PLAN:
Seq Scan on t2002_06 (cost=0.00..35379.69 rows=35169 width=47) (actual

snet=# set enable_seqscan=off;
SET VARIABLE
snet=# explain analyze select * from t2002_06 WHERE station = 'SAMI4';

Any thoughts? I am sorry to be causing all this trouble. I just want my
queries to voom-voom!! Interestingly enough, I see that the SEQ SCAN is
now estimated at 1730.63, when I first posted to this list, it was 3900.00
or so. Errrr
Thanks, Daryl
