 So my questions are:

 all aliases for a given name into such a mapping query?

what version are you using?

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
   choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
   match

Cheers,

Re: [PERFORM] index on custom function; explain

2005-10-05 Thread Jan Aerts
Some additional thoughts: what appears to take the most time (i.e.
account for the highest cost in the explain), is _not_ running the
function itself (cost=0.00..0.01), but comparing the result from that
function with the name1 column in the mappings table
(cost=0.00..35935.05). Am I right? (See EXPLAIN in previous post.) If
so: that's pretty strange, because the name1-column in the mappings
table is indexed...
