With index scan cost being more than 25 * seq scan cost, I guess that - all other things held equal - even random_page_cost = 1 wouldn't help. Andre might also want to experiment with effective_cache_size and with ALTER TABLE ... SET STATISTICS. Or there's something wrong with correlation? Andre, what hardware is this running on? What are the values of shared_buffers, random_page_cost, effective_cache_size, ... ? Could you show us the result of SELECT * FROM pg_stats WHERE tablename = "tbl_traffic" AND attname = "time_stamp"; Servus Manfred ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
