Hi ,
I have a query in which two huge tables (A,B) are joined using an indexed
column and a search is made on tsvector on some column on B. Very limited
rows of B are expected to match the query on tsvector column.
With default planner settings the query takes too long ( > 100 secs) , but
with hashjoin off it returns almost immediately. The question is , is
it is advisable to
tweak planner settings for specific queries in application ?
The plans are as follows.
1. With default settings
explain select lead_id from general.trade_leads join
general.profile_master as pm using(profile_id) where status ='m' and
co_name_vec @@ to_tsquery('plastic&tubes') limit 20;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limit (cost=4109.11..11127.78 rows=20 width=4)
-> Hash Join (cost=4109.11..90789.72 rows=247 width=4)
Hash Cond: (trade_leads.profile_id = pm.profile_id)
-> Seq Scan on trade_leads (cost=0.00..85752.52 rows=246832 width=8)
Filter: ((status)::text = 'm'::text)
-> Hash (cost=4095.68..4095.68 rows=1074 width=4)
-> Bitmap Heap Scan on profile_master pm
(cost=40.89..4095.68 rows=1074 width=4)
Filter: (co_name_vec @@ '''plastic'' & ''tube'''::tsquery)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on
profile_master_co_name_vec (cost=0.00..40.62 rows=1074 width=0)
Index Cond: (co_name_vec @@ '''plastic'' &
''tube'''::tsquery)
(10 rows)
2. with SET enable_hashjoin TO off;
explain analyze select lead_id from general.trade_leads join
general.profile_master as pm using(profile_id) where status ='m' and
co_name_vec @@ to_tsquery('plastic&tubes') limit 20;
QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
