Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the delayed response. > You might need to adjust effective_cache_size. You are right. But, effective_cache_size will have the impact on the number of pages_fetched when it's used as parameterized path (i.e inner side of the nested loop). But for our case where we see the wrong number of pages got estimated (Q10), it was for the non-parameterized path. However, I have also tested with high effective cache size but did not observe any change. > The Mackert and Lohman > formula isn't exactly counting unique pages fetched.

If loop_count =1 then seems like it doesn't consider the effective_cache size. But, actually, multiple tuples can fall into the same page. -- Regards, Dilip Kumar EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
