Re: TOAST table performance problem - Mailing list pgsql-performance

Yes, I would concur that this planning time and execution time do not take into account the network time sending the data back to the client, especially since your are sending back the entire contents of the table.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I have a table like;

CREATE TABLE zamazin
(
  paramuser_id text,
  paramperson_id integer,
  paramdata json,
  paramisdeleted boolean,
  paramactiontime timestamp without time zone
)

paramdata row size is 110KB and over.

 

When I execute this query like;
select * from zamazin

it takes 600 seconds.

But when analyze the query ;

"Seq Scan on public.zamazin  (cost=0.00..21.77 rows=1077 width=49) (actual time=0.008..0.151 rows=1077 loops=1)"
"  Output: paramuser_id, paramperson_id, paramdata, paramisdeleted, paramactiontime"
"  Buffers: shared hit=11"
"Planning time: 0.032 ms"
"Execution time: 0.236 ms"

 Why the query takes a long time, I do not understand. I assume that this relates to the TOAST structure.

 

My guess is the time is spent in the client retrieving the data, not in the DB itself. Are you on a slow network?
