Sorry, I should have explained.
The query I showed selects data for a single month. The 'real' query
repeats this 12 times, each with different dates, and combines the
results using UNION ALL. This was the timing mentioned above.
BTW, I know that I can improve this by setting up the dates in a CTE and
using JOIN LATERAL. I am avoiding this as it is not supported by SQL
Server or sqlite3, and I am trying to stick to one code base for all
databases. But I will look into it further.
