I have two tables: t_haus is about 1400 row and t_host has 364000 entries.
Both tables are indexed on edvnr. I did a vacuum on my db and all indices
are rebuild.
I want to delete all Entries in t_haus where a row can be found in t_host.
When using "delete from t_haus where t_haus.edvnr=t_host.edvnr; " the
database performs extremely bad.
explain delete from t_haus where t_haus.edvnr=t_host.edvnr;

What can I do to speed it up?
I've also had troubles with DELETE before (when doing joins in the
WHERE clause).
