Given that query, it's not too surprising that the only relevant index for all the OR clauses would be the one on s_suppkey ... if you want to look at *all* the indexes on the relation, you need to scan the parent RelOptInfo's indexlist. You didn't say what it was you hoped to accomplish, but perhaps the technique requires a more complicated query to be of any use? BTW, best_or_subclause_indexes (and indeed most of orindxpath.c) is gone in CVS tip; all that code has been rewritten for 8.1. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
