is set to on. I actually did a full analyze of the database and then
ran it again. So what am I missing?

But you evidently didn't have stats. Perhaps you have autovacuum turned
off? What PG version is this anyway?

It is once you understand what's happening. It was probably the 11+

If you alter the default_statistics_target or any of the specific
statistics targets ( via ALTER TABLE SET STATISTICS ) , the change
will not have an effect until an analyze is performed.

Dear All,
Thanks for your inputs on the insert performance part.
Any suggestion on storage requirement?
VACUUM is certainly not an option, because this is something related to
maintenance AFTER insertion.
I am talking about the plain storage requirement w.r. to Oracle, which I
observed is twice
Thank you for all of the responses. This was really helpful.

Hi experts,

to be visible to queries from other threads with minimal delay. The inserts are
triggered by real-time events and are therefore asynchronous (i.e. many
