Hi,

I have 2 queries which have the same plan/same performance on 8.3 but on
9.1.3 fist one doesn't perform well because condition doesn't pushed down to
subquery:

--slow on 9.1.3 but fast on 8.3.13
--helper just shell view
db=# explain (analyze,verbose) select id from

id,
regexp_replace(btrim(((((((COALESCE(NULLIF(start_number, 0) || ' '::text,
''::text) || address) || ' '::text) || suburb) || ' '::text) || state) || '
'::text) || postcode), '  +'::text, ' '::text, 'g'::text) AS search_string
FROM helper
WHERE
start_number IS NOT NULL AND
start_alpha IS NOT NULL AND
end_number IS NULL
) AS _t WHERE
search_string='something';

btree, for table "address", predicate (start_number IS NOT NULL AND
upper(start_alpha::text) IS NOT NULL AND end_number IS NULL)

All *_cost parameters default on both databases, no amout play with *_cost
setting on 9.1.3 helps. No changes with other settings on 9.1.3 help.

I can't yet create selfcontained test case but I working on in.

It's visible that planner see fast way is really faster/cheaper, however
something prevent planner from flatten subquery.

Kind Regards,
Maksym
