I am trying to clean up our schema by removing any indices which are not
being used frequently or at all.

Using pgadmin, looking at the statistics for an index, I see various
pieces of information:

 

Index Scans, Index Tuples Read, Index Tuples Fetched, Index Blocks Read,
and Index Blocks Hit.

I have on index with the following statistics:

 

Index Scans        0              

Index Tuples Read           0              

Index Tuples Fetched    0              

Index Blocks Read           834389  

Index Blocks Hit                247283300           

Index Size           1752 kB 

 

 

Since there are no index scans, would it be safe to remove this one?
