Hello<br />For a particular query, are there any functions which can give me the start-up cost, total run-cost, number ofrows and width?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Sharat.<br />

Your question would probably be more appropriate in -general (which I am cc'ing) or perhaps -performance. I believe EXPLAIN ANALYZE will provide what you're looking for. The PostgreSQL documentation is a good place to get started: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/sql-explain.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/performance-tips.html Hope this helps.
