Hi,

(pg_version 7.4.2, i do run vacuum analyze on the whole database frequently 
and just before executing statements below)

i dont know if anyone can help me because i dont know really where the problem 
is, but i try. If any further information is needed i'll be glad to send.

my real rule much longer (more calculation instead of "+ 1") but this shortcut 
has the same disadvantages in performance:

CREATE RULE ru_sp_update AS ON UPDATE TO Spiele
DO
  UPDATE punktecache SET pc_punkte = pc_punkte + 1

    FROM         Spieletipps AS stip
    NATURAL JOIN tippspieltage2spiele AS tspt2sp

    WHERE punktecache.tr_kurzname = stip.tr_kurzname
    AND punktecache.mg_name     = stip.mg_name
    AND punktecache.tspt_name   = tspt2sp.tspt_name
    AND stip.sp_id = OLD.sp_id
;

punktecache is a materialized view which should be updated by this rule

# \d punktecache
     Table "public.punktecache"
   Column    |   Type   | Modifiers
-------------+----------+-----------
 tr_kurzname | text     | not null
 mg_name     | text     | not null
 tspt_name   | text     | not null
 pc_punkte   | smallint | not null
Indexes:
    "pk_punktecache" primary key, btree (tr_kurzname, mg_name, tspt_name)
Foreign-key constraints:
    "fk_mitglieder" FOREIGN KEY (tr_kurzname, mg_name) REFERENCES 
mitglieder(tr_kurzname, mg_name) ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE CASCADE
    "fk_tippspieltage" FOREIGN KEY (tr_kurzname, tspt_name) REFERENCES 
tippspieltage(tr_kurzname, tspt_name) ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE CASCADE


my update statement:

explain analyze UPDATE spiele
SET    sp_heimtore = spup.spup_heimtore,
       sp_gasttore = spup.spup_gasttore,
       sp_abpfiff  = spup.spup_abpfiff
FROM   spieleupdates AS spup
WHERE  spiele.sp_id = spup.sp_id;

and output from explain
[did i post explain's output right? i just copied it, but i wonder if there is 
a more pretty print like method to post explain's output?]

Can this be made any faster? Can you give me a hint where to start research? 

My guess is that the update statement inside the rule doesnt really uses the 
index on punktecache, but i dont know why and i dont know how to change it.

Any hint or help is is very appreciated.

kind regards
janning
