Wow! That was almost instantaneous. I can't believe the difference.

it is a small price to pay for this incredible optimization.

David,
Truncate table would be a good idea if u want to delete all the data in the table.
You need not perform vacuum in this case since there are no dead rows created.

Hello!
I am trying to delete an entire table. There are about 41,000 rows in
the table (based on count(*)).
I am using the SQL comment: delete from table;
The operation seems to take in the order of hours, rather than seconds
or minutes.
"Explain delete from table" gives me:
