Sorry went out of town for the weekend. The update did occur, but I
have no idea when it finished.
Here's the actual query and the explain Update:
cdm.bcp_ddw_ck_cus = 12.7 M
cdm.cdm_ddw_customer = 12.8M
explain
update cdm.cdm_ddw_customer
set indiv_fkey = b.indiv_fkey
from cdm.bcp_ddw_ck_cus b
where
cdm.cdm_ddw_customer.cus_nbr = b.cus_num;
Here's the table layout. It's the first time I noticed this, but there
is a PK on the cus_nbr and an index. Does really need to be both and
could this be causing the issue? I thought that if a primary key was
designated, it was automatically indexed.:
CREATE TABLE cdm.cdm_ddw_customer
(
cus_nbr int8 NOT NULL,
ph_home int8,
ph_day int8,
email_adr varchar(255),
name_prefix varchar(5),
name_first varchar(20),
name_middle varchar(20),
name_last varchar(30),
name_suffix varchar(5),
addr1 varchar(40),
addr2 varchar(40),
addr3 varchar(40),
city varchar(25),
state varchar(7),
zip varchar(10),
country varchar(16),
gender varchar(1),
lst_dte date,
add_dte date,
reg_id int4,
indiv_fkey int8,
CONSTRAINT ddwcus_pk PRIMARY KEY (cus_nbr)
)
WITH OIDS;
CREATE INDEX cdm_ddwcust_id_idx
ON cdm.cdm_ddw_customer
USING btree
(cus_nbr);
CREATE TABLE cdm.bcp_ddw_ck_cus
(
cus_num int8,
indiv_fkey int8 NOT NULL
)
WITHOUT OIDS;

I'm running an update statement on about 12 million records using the

Update table_A

What does EXPLAIN show for this?
Do you have any foreign key references to table_A from elsewhere?
