Hi,
Okay, i know, not really a recent version:
PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on i386-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC cc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian
1:3.3.5-13)
I have a fresh ANALYZED table with some indexes.
scholl=*# set enable_bitmapscan=1;
SET
scholl=*# explain analyse select sum(flaeche) from bde_meldungen where
maschine=1200 and ab = 347735;

Okay, 163.901 ms with Bitmap Index Scan.
And now i disable this and runs the same select:
scholl=*# set enable_bitmapscan=0;
SET
scholl=*# explain analyse select sum(flaeche) from bde_meldungen where
maschine=1200 and ab = 347735;

Okay, i got a really different plan, but i expected _NOT_ a
performance-boost like this. I expected the opposite.
It's not a really problem, i just played with this. But i'm confused
about this...
your results are getting cached. try two queries in a row with the same plan.
