Dear group,
I have a table foo
anshajdb=# \d foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Modifiers
---------+-------------------+-----------
snumber | numeric(18,0) |
test | character varying |
Indexes:
"snum_idx" btree (snumber)
when I try to do a query like
explain analyze select * from foo where snumber > 1000;
Seq Scan on foo (cost=0.00..69.00 rows=320 width=391) (actual
time=0.011..0.721 rows=323 loops=1)
Filter: (snumber > 1000::numeric)
Total runtime: 0.979 ms
(3 rows)
It do a sequence scan on table. Why it is not using the snum_idx in this
query. Do I need to change some setting or indexes don't work on this
types of query.
Thanks and Regards
Anshaj
