Maybe a couple indexes to try: create index members_emailok_emailbounced_idx on members (emailok,emailbounced); or a functional index (will likely be smaller, depending on the contents of your table): create index members_emailok_emailbounced_idx on members (emailok,emailbounced) where emailok = 1 and emailbounced = 0; -- if you use that combination of 1 and 0 regularly -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
