Is effective_cache_size set the same on the test and live?

Thanks... have notified our sys admin of that so he can make the correct

It still doesn't explain the difference in query plans though?
I mean, it's the same database server the two instances of the same
database is running on.
One instance (the live) just insists on doing the seq scan of the 50k
records in Price_Tbl and the 6.5k records in SCT2SubCatType_Tbl.
Seems weird....

Thank you for the swift reply, the following is the output of the
SHOW ALL for shared_buffers and effective_cache_size.
shared_buffers: 13384
effective_cache_size: 4000
server memory: 2GB
effective_cache_size should be 10-100x larger perhaps...
