Hi all,
I'm storing some timestamps as integers (UTF) in a table and I want to
query by = and = for times between a certain period. The table has
gotten quite large and is now very slow in querying.
I think it's time to create an index for the timestamp column.
I tried using an rtree (for = and = optimization):
create INDEX logs_timestamp ON logs using rtree (timestamp);
but I get
ERROR: data type integer has no default operator class for access
method rtree
You must specify an operator class for the index or define a
default operator class for the data type
Do I have to create an rtree type for my timestamp integer column?
Existing rtree columns are below.
Pls help.
Thanks,
Chris
