J'ai une table avec environ 10 millions de lignes et un index sur un champ de date. Lorsque j'essaie d'extraire les valeurs uniques du champ indexé, Postgres exécute une analyse séquentielle même si l'ensemble de résultats ne contient que 26 éléments. Pourquoi l'optimiseur choisit-il ce plan? Et que puis-je faire pour l'éviter?
D'après les autres réponses, je soupçonne que cela est autant lié à la requête qu'à l'index.
explain select "labelDate" from pages group by "labelDate";
