Thread: Perfrmance Problems (7.4.6)

Hi,

I am running on postgres 7.4.6.
I did a vacuum analyze on the database but there was no change.
I Attached here a file with details about the tables, the queries and
the Explain analyze plans.
Hope this can be helpful to analyze my problem

I think that the problem is the GROUP BY (datetime) that is
date_trunc('hour'::text, i.entry_time)
You should create an indexe with this expression (if its possible).

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/indexes-expressional.html

If is not possible, I would create a column with value
date_trunc('hour'::text, i.entry_time) of each row and then index it.

Hope this helps :)

Ok. But that means I need a trigger on the original column to update the
new column on each insert/update and that overhead.

Did you tried to index the expression?
Did it work?
