Thread: Explain out put
Hello
I suspect that the partial index is not correct.
It should include both column play_positionand elapsed. may you please help me figure out what's wrong here
I hate to be "that guy", but my day doesn't go by without Yambu in my inbox!

Can you run a vacuum (verbose,analyze) playback_telemetry and check if the new plan is any better?
Thanks,

Not easily, but I do see the scan of an index with “partial” in its name so it is getting used. Though the fact it thinks its returning 6,000 or so rows but in actuality gets almost 500,000 (each on two partitions) is a bit worrying (though maybe not solveable…and since you do have nearly 1,000,000 rows to deal with 3 seconds doesn’t seem terrible). It doesn’t want to do 1,500 nested loops from the media_contents table onto an only 15,000 rows telemetry result. I don’t know if it would think differently if it knew the inner result is 1 million instead (you could experiment with the planner GUCs). I don’t know enough about the statistics to give concrete help on improving this other than make sure tou’ve run analyze on the table.
You may find keeping client_id on the telemetry table to be helpful if you need better performance.
All that said, I’m somewhat learning by teaching here so take this with a critical mindset.
I take it the query used to use aggregates? If not the group by in the main query is just noise. Also, as you are grouping by account_id in the CTE it will be impossible for rows to exist that the “select distinct” will get rid of.

The impression that you quickly resort to asking questions on these lists instead of taking 5-10 minutes to search for answers is a real one regardless of the data. Part of that has to do with how the questions are asked (and the general kinds of questions), in particular, without any indication that you tried something you thought should work and confusion as to why it didn't. Somewhat counter-intuitively, being brief in your asking of questions works OK for the first few but quickly is interpreted as a lack of respect for others' time when done over and over again. If a specific question is simple enough to ask in 10-15 words it likely has a readily searched for answer.

I am not sure you should be the one doing that.
All you asked were pg related questions and it is infact a general question mailing list.
I do not feel it is right to do name calling like this in the entire public mailing list. I would have ignored the replies as well, but I am only replying so that no one feels intimidated and stop asking questions due to those replies.
Why is it so hard to ignore a query if it is so basic. let others who have enough free time, ( Yes I have no job so all the free time n the world I keep looking for queries, discussions on the telegram , irc and mailing list and if I can learn something new while trying to help someone. I consider it win win)
Keep asking without fear.
Thank you Vijay

I think it is ok to give Yambu feedback about his questions. On the other hand, he hasn't broken any rules or spammed the list, so there is no need for him to apologize (but perhaps he can spend a few minutes of research before asking his next question).

Thanks Laurenz,
Thank you all, you have helped me. I have learnt a few leasons

I thought i might in turn help someone by sharing the lessons learned
Research before asking (did this , but going to do more)
Use fake name in case you are attacked in public forums
Do not be afraid to ask
No name calling in public forums (I don't do this by the way)
Offer constructive criticism (feedback on questions asked is important, it doesn't have to be harsh, just a pointer to right direction is good enough)
We are all trying to make the world a better one .
Thanks once again
regards
