Hi List;
Sorry if this is a dupe, my first post never showed up...
I'm having some performance issues with a partitioned table. We have a
VERY large table that we've partitioned by day.
Unfortunately, that is the defined behavior in this case. From 5.9.6 of
the manual:
"Constraint exclusion only works when the query's WHERE clause contains
constants."
[Where the constants are of course your partitioning column(s)]
The best way around this depends mostly on what you're up to. You can
get the min tablename from the catalogs, or you can keep a table of
active partitions that your script which drops off old partitions and
generates new ones can keep updated on the oldest/newest partition
dates. Or some number of other solutions, whatever you find cleanest for
your purposes.
