Salut, Cédric.

I wonder what the plan will be if you replace sc.taken_* in :

That is a fairly important restriction. I will try making it *
(year1||'-01-01')::date*, but I have no constant value for it -- it is a
user-supplied parameter. And then there's the year wrapping problem, too,
where the ending year will differ from the starting year in certain cases.
(Like querying rows between Dec 22, 1900 to Mar 22 *1901* rather than Mar 22
1900 to Dec 22 1900. The first query is the winter season and the second
query is all seasons except winter.)

C'est une grosse table. Pres que 40 million lines; il y a sept tableau comme
ca.

I tried an explicit join in the past: it did not help much. But that was
before everything was running this fast, so now that the system performs
differently, maybe it will help?
