Apologies for not including more info - I had been hoping that spiralling performance was a known tell-tale sign of
something:) 


Here is some additional information - sorry if its overload, but I figured I should give an intro to the schema before
showingthe EXPLAIN results! 



Firstly, a quick schema overview for the relevant tables:

contact has many contactparts
address has many addressparts
contact has many address

Now, the above table relationships are connected via relationship tables (rather than foreign indexes directly to each
other),so we have: 

contact
rel_contact_has_contactpart
address
rel_address_has_addresspart

(The reasons behind this are for meta-data purposes - our database is intended to be very abstract from the code...)



                                 Table "public.contact"
     Column       |            Type             |                     Modifiers
------------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 id               | integer                     | default nextval('contact_id_seq'::text)
 version          | integer                     | default 1
 contactid        | character varying           |
 enddate          | timestamp without time zone |
 preferredaddress | character varying           |
 startdate        | timestamp without time zone |
Indexes:
    "contact_id_idx" unique, btree (id)
    "contact_key" unique, btree (contactid)


So we have an index on the meta-data related "id" and the externally visible "contactid" values. The "id" is used with
therel_contact_has_XXX tables (see below). 



                          Table "public.contactpart"
   Column    |       Type        |                   Modifiers
-------------+-------------------+------------------------------------------------
 id          | integer           | default nextval('contactpart_id_seq'::text)
 version     | integer           | default 1
 detailname  | character varying | not null
 detailvalue | character varying |
Indexes:
    "contactpart_id_idx" unique, btree (id)


So we have an index on the meta-data related "id".



                             Table "public.address"
 Column  |            Type             |                 Modifiers
---------+-----------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 id      | integer                     | default nextval('mc_address_id_seq'::text)
 version | integer                     | default 1
 enddate | timestamp without time zone |
 format  | character varying           |
 type    | character varying           | not null
 value   | character varying           |
Indexes:
    "address_id_idx" unique, btree (id)
    "address_value_key" btree (value)


So we have an index on the meta-data related "id".


                          Table "public.addresspart"
   Column    |       Type        |                   Modifiers
-------------+-------------------+------------------------------------------------
 id          | integer           | default nextval('addresspart_id_seq'::text)
 version     | integer           | default 1
 detailname  | character varying | not null
 detailvalue | character varying |
Indexes:
    "addresspart_id_idx" unique, btree (id)

So we have an index on the meta-data related "id". This is used with the rel_address_has_addresspart table (see below).




 Table "public.rel_contact_has_contactpart"
        Column        |  Type   | Modifiers
----------------------+---------+-----------
 contact_id           | integer |
 contactpart_id       | integer |
Indexes:
    "rel_contact_has_contactpart_idx2" unique, btree (contactpart_id)
    "rel_contact_has_contactpart_idx1" btree (contact_id)

So we have a unique index on the contactpart and a non-unique index on the contact (to reflect the 1:M relationship
contacthas contactparts) 



Table "public.rel_address_has_addresspart"
      Column       |  Type   | Modifiers
-------------------+---------+-----------
 address_id        | integer |
 addresspart_id    | integer |
Indexes:
    "rel_address_has_addresspart_idx2" unique, btree (addresspart_id)
    "rel_address_has_addresspart_idx1" btree (address_id)

So we have a unique index on the addresspart and a non-unique index on the address (to reflect the 1:M relationship
addresshas addressparts) 



   Table "public.rel_contact_has_address"
        Column        |  Type   | Modifiers
----------------------+---------+-----------
 contact_id           | integer |
 address_id           | integer |
Indexes:
    "rel_contact_has_address_idx2" unique, btree (address_id)
    "rel_contact_has_address_idx1" btree (contactdetails_id)

So we have a unique index on the address and a non-unique index on the contact (to reflect the 1:M relationship contact
hasaddresses) 


However, to add a layer of abstraction to the business logic, the underlying tables are never directly exposed through
anythingother than public views. The public views combine the <table> and <tablepart> into a single table. 

So we have 2 public views: PvContact which ties together the contact and contactparts, and PvAddress which ties
togetherthe address and addresspart. 

                  View "public.pvcontact"
     Column       |            Type             | Modifiers
------------------+-----------------------------+-----------
 version          | integer                     |
 contactid        | character varying           |
 startdate        | timestamp without time zone |
 enddate          | timestamp without time zone |
 preferredaddress | character varying           |
 firstname        | character varying           |
 lastname         | character varying           |


(Note - firstname and lastname are dervied from the detailnames of contactpart table)


              View "public.pvaddress"
  Column   |            Type             | Modifiers
-----------+-----------------------------+-----------
 version   | integer                     |
 contactid | character varying           |
 type      | character varying           |
 format    | character varying           |
 enddate   | timestamp without time zone |
 npi       | character varying           |
 ton       | character varying           |
 number    | character varying           |
 prefix    | character varying           |
 addrvalue | character varying           |
 link      | character varying           |
 house     | character varying           |
 street    | character varying           |
 town      | character varying           |
 city      | character varying           |
 county    | character varying           |
 postcode  | character varying           |
 state     | character varying           |
 zipcode   | character varying           |
 extension | character varying           |

 (Note - number, prefix, link, house, street, town, city, postcode etc are derived from the detailnames of addresspart
table)



For example, suppose we have 2 contactparts for a particular contact (with unique id = y): FirstName and LastName, then
thecontactpart table would have 2 rows like: 

id = x
version = 1
partname = 'FirstName'
partvalue = 'John'

id = x+1
version = 1
partname = 'LastName'
partvalue = 'Doe'


Then the public view, PvContact, would look like:

Version = 1
ContactId = y
StartDate = ...
EndDate = ...
PreferredAddress = ...
FirstName = John
LastName = Doe



All Create, Read, Update, Delete operations on the DB are performed by StoredProcedures (again, to help abstract the
codefrom the DB). The SPs are capable of dealing with externally (public view) advertised schemas, and ensuring data
integrityacross the underlying tables. 

Now, our problem seems to be the delays introduced by reading from the public views. I've taken some measurements of
rawINSERTS that mirror what the SPs are doing (but the data is invalid and its not correctly linked across tables
(whichis what the StoredProcs are responsible for) - but the INSERTS are happening in the same order and frequency for
avalid data upload). We can upload 2000 sets of users+contacts+addresses in about 17 seconds. But when it is done via
theStored Procedures (which do some inserts, some reads, some more inserts etc to ensure tables are properly linked via
therelationships), this drops to 2 minutes for 2000. And the performance spirals down to less than 1
user+contact+addressper second after a short while.

(147 rows)





As you can see, the PublicView is resulting in a huge nested loop, with an index scan of the contact only occurring at
theend. I would have expected something more like: 

(1) An index scan of the contact table to determine the correct contact
(2) An index scan of the address table using the rel_contact_has_address.address_id to obtain the (relatively small -
max16, and typically 2) addresses 
(3) A number of joins - at the same level rather than looping - to obtain the detailnames for the new column names of
thepublic view 



As I said in my original email, these delays are after applying all the performance related enhancements (fsync off,
increasedbackbuffers, sort memory etc) I have picked up from the archives and FAQ. The upload script was also modified
tocommit and vacuum analyze at different intervals without providing any significant improvement. top reports the CPU
usageat 99% - so I believe its all looping of the above intermediate SELECTs that is causing the spiralling delays as
thenumber of rows increases. 


Again, any help would be very much appreciated!

Damien
