Thread: set column statistics to max does not help

set column statistics to max does not help

From

Hello all,
We're stuck at a wrong plan that the planner insists on.(pg 14.2)
It's an aggregation over a single table. 
The planner always goes for an extra scan over a partial index.
We have set statistics on the relevant columns to the max of 10000 and could not get correct row estimates. None of the cost* settings helped too.
Disabling bitmapscan below brings up the correct plan. Do we have another option here ?
Maybe it is a more general question of what to do when the statistics samples cannot get the right numbers?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Rado


Here are the details:
See the partial index that matches one of the query where clauses :
"transaction_events_0100_0200_merchant_id_id_idx" btree (merchant_id, id) WHERE (event_type::text = ANY (ARRAY['REFUND'::character varying::text, 'CHARGE_BACK'::character varying::text])) AND (current_status_id <> ALL (ARRAY[24, 10]))

the distribution of event_type is 
  count   | event_type  
----------+-------------
    14908 | CHARGE_BACK
   134007 | REFUND
 99846581 | PAYOUT
(3 rows)
