If you're doing these queries often, you should: CREATE INDEX ix_big_wf_age_id ON big_wf (age, id) If that's still not fast enough, you can physically sort rows in the table using the newly created index: CLUSTER big_wf USING ix_big_wf_age_id; Please post back your results. :) Regards, Marti -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
