Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to speed up deletes on this table
(see details below)?
I am running few of these deletes (could become many more) inside a
transaction and each one takes allmost a second to complete.
Is it because of the foreign key constraint, or is it something else?
Thanks!
Check your references : on delete, pg needs to find which rows to
cascade-delete, or set null, or restrict, in the tables which reference
this one. Also if this table references another I think it will lookup it
too. Do you have indexes for all this ?
