Hi. I hope I'm not asking a too trivial question here...

I'm having trouble with a (quite big) query, and can't find a way to make it 
faster.

Here is the information :

sces_vte -> 2753539 rows
sces_art -> 602327

(Obviously, as it has many rows, it will still be a slow query, but here it's too slow 
for us...).

I allready extended the sort_mem (up to 500 MB to be sure, the server has plenty of 
RAM),
the query has become faster, but I don't know what else to do, to speed up the sort.

BTW the query was generated, not written. We allready are trying to write something 
better, but we are still facing a
gigantic sort at the end (we need the group by, and there are many lines from the main 
table (sces_vte) to be retrieved and aggregated)...

Thanks in advance...
