Hi Tom / Steve,

Am one of the silent readers of performance issues that come up on this list
(and are discussed in detail) ... just like this one.

If and when you do come up with a solution, please do post some details
about them here... (i say that coz it seems that for obvious reasons, things
must have gone off air after tom's last email, and one can understand that).
But an analysis, or atleast a pointer may be of help to someone (like me)
reading this list.

Thanks
Robins

recognizing it.  Are you in a position to let me ssh into your machine
and try to debug it?  Or other options like sending me a dump of your
database?   I'm about out of steam for tonight, but let's talk about it
off-list tomorrow.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
