Hi all,

This query executes very slow:

select (select count(*) from customer where id <= a.id) as row, id, from 
customer as a order by id;

Where customer has id column and others and has also index on id column. The 
table has about 10.000+ records. When used with "explain", it gives me this 
output:

                                        QUERY PLAN

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Sort  (cost=6513774.23..6513801.37 rows=10855 width=14)
   Sort Key: id
   ->  Seq Scan on customer a  (cost=0.00..6513046.62 rows=10855 width=14)
         SubPlan
           ->  Aggregate  (cost=599.94..599.95 rows=1 width=0)
                 ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on customer  (cost=28.66..590.89 rows=361 
width=0)
                       Recheck Cond: (id <= $0)
                       ->  Bitmap Index Scan on iid  (cost=0.00..28.66 rows=361 
width=0)
                             Index Cond: (id <= $0)

So is there any solution to speed up this query? Or can I get the same result 
but with some other query?

thanks
