But in this case, I'd bet money that if it's taking 4 minutes something else is wrong. Have you been vacuuming that table frequently enough?
That gave me an idea. I thought that autovacuum is doing it right, but I issued a vacuum full analyze verbose , and it worked all the day. After that I've tweaked memory settings a bit too (more fsm_pages) Now: staging=# SELECT count(*) from infx.infx_product; count --------- 3284997 (1 row) Time: 1301.049 ms As I saw the output, the database was compressed to 10% of its size :) This table has quite big changes every 4 hour, let's see how it works. Maybe I'll have to issue full vacuums from cron regularly.
What's SELECT relpages FROM pg_class WHERE relname='tablename' show?
This went to 10% as well, now it's around 156000 pages.
