Well, that depends. If all your data can be expected to fit in memory then it is a realistic value. (If not, you should be real careful not to make performance decisions on the basis of test cases that *do* fit in RAM...) In any case, if I recall your numbers correctly you shouldn't need to drop it nearly that far to get the thing to make the right choice. A lot of people run with random_page_cost set to 2 or so. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
