Why is there so different "Total runtime" for ('now'::text)::date) and
'2005-04-06'::date ?
I think both is constant during execution.
CREATE TABLE test (
_time timestamp with time zone,
_platform character(5),
_tld character(5)
) WITHOUT OIDS;
explain analyze SELECT count(*) from test where
_time::date=CURRENT_DATE;
QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate (cost=0.01..0.01 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=0.026..0.029
rows=1 loops=1)
-> Seq Scan on test (cost=0.00..0.00 rows=1 width=0) (actual
time=0.004..0.004 rows=0 loops=1)
Filter: ((_time)::date = ('now'::text)::date)
Total runtime: 24.034 ms
^^^^^^^^
