Re: [PERFORM] Queries within a function
Thank you all, You were right on the analyze. Insert statement with an aggregated subquery had a problem on an empty table. I had to change the queries to do a simple insert then analyze on the table followed by an update with an aggregated sub query. That goes thru very fast. -mridula From: Віталій Тимчишин [mailto:tiv...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2010 8:11 AM To: Mridula Mahadevan Cc: pgsql-performance@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [PERFORM] Queries within a function 2010/2/2 Mridula Mahadevan mailto:mmahade...@stratify.com>> Hi, I am running a bunch of queries within a function, creating some temp tables and populating them.

Re: [PERFORM] Queries within a function
Tom, I cannot run execute because all these are temp tables with drop on auto commit within a function. This should have something to do with running it in a transaction, when I run them in autocommit mode (without a drop on autocommit) the queries return in a few seconds. -Original Message- From: Tom Lane [mailto:t...@sss.pgh.pa.us] Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 11:28 AM To: Mridula Mahadevan Cc: pgsql-performance@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [PERFORM] Queries within a function Mridula Mahadevan writes: > I am running a bunch of queries within a function, creating some temp tables > and populating them.

You might have to resort to using EXECUTE, although if you're on 8.4 DISCARD PLANS ought to help too. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance

[PERFORM] Queries within a function
Hi, I am running a bunch of queries within a function, creating some temp tables and populating them. When the data exceeds say, 100k the queries start getting really slow and timeout (30 min). when these are run outside of a transaction(in auto commit mode), they run in a few seconds. Any ideas on what may be going on and any postgresql.conf parameters etc that might help? Thanks
