Hi,
I know this question was asked many times, but please help me understand
what I am doing wrong.
I work with a postgresql 7.1.3 on Solaris 8 compiled with gcc 3.0.2
Some indexes are defined on a table
ewsweb_test=> \d measures_product
Index "measures_product"
Attribute | Type
------------+----------
product_id | smallint
btree
ewsweb_test=> \d measures_date
Index "measures_date"
Attribute | Type
-----------+--------------------------
date | timestamp with time zone
btree
but the query seems to ignore it.
ewsweb_test=> explain select zero_yield, gross from measures where
product_id=29 and date between '2003-03-12' and '2003-08-14';
NOTICE: QUERY PLAN:
Seq Scan on measures (cost=0.00..12937.76 rows=254 width=12)
EXPLAIN
I know there is an option that alter the seq scan cost but I prefer to
leave the optimizer as clean as possible.
Thanks in advence for any help.
Marco
