Not really, the server has 2 GB memory (PROD is a lot more than this dev box),
so the table should be able to fit in memory if we preload them.
MemTotal: 2049572 kB
dev=# select pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('data'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
141 MB
(1 row)
Time: 2.640 ms
dev=# select pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('order'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
516 MB
(1 row)
Thanks,

pg_prewarm is not going to magically fix things if your table is bigger
than RAM, which it apparently is.
