Using string concatenation in where clause causes huge perfomance loss:

How to rewrite the query

select
       rid.toode,
      artliik.*
   FROM dok JOIN rid USING (dokumnr)
   JOIN toode USING (toode)
   LEFT JOIN artliik using(grupp,liik)
   WHERE rid.toode='NAH S'
AND dok.kuupaev BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-04'
and dok.kuupaev||dok.kellaaeg BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-0423 59'

so it runs fast ?

You provide zero information on the table layout, and the explain output
has been horribly mangled by your MUA.

I would suspect the problem is that there's no index that can be used
for that final comparison.  Do you have an index along the lines of
CREATE INDEX dokindex ON dok (kuupaeve||kellaaeg) ?

Overall, the fact that you're concatenating two text fields to generate a
date field tends to suggest that your database schema has some fairly
major design problems, but I can only speculate at this point.

If neither of those help, I expect you'll need to provide more information.

can you please give us the types of  dok.kuupaev and dok.kellaaeg?  I
think a simple fix is possible here.

just small correction here...expressions like that in the create index
need an extra set of parens (but I agree with your sentiment):
CREATE INDEX dokindex ON dok ((kuupaeve||kellaaeg))

I'm not sure what that comment is supposed to mean.

PG is using the index for the condition
dok.kuupaev BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-04'

but there is no index that matches the expression
dok.kuupaev||dok.kellaaeg BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-0423 59'

If you look at your explain output, you'll see that step is taking a
lot of time, and it's inside a nested loop, which means it's run
repeatedly.

> This index filters out most rows.

Have you run a VACUUM ANALYZE on the tables involved with this query
recently?  It's possible that PG has outdated statistics and is
running a poor plan as a result.

The query planner doesn't seem to think so.

Just add the index and rerun to see if it helps.  If it doesn't, then
drop the index.  I have absolutely no way to investigate this for you.

I understand.  However, that doesn't change the fact that such a change
will improve performance and accuracy of the data.

For example, in your query, you have a text string meant to represent
a date: '2007-12-0423 59'

This is not a valid date/time, but PostgreSQL has no way to know that
because it's just a text string.  As a result, you're query is liable
to give you outright incorrect results.

I tried

but got error

How to create such index ?

Postgres must use index to filter out rows matching to the  condition

dok.kuupaev BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-04'

this returns 121 rows.

Additional condition

 dok.kuupaev||dok.kellaaeg BETWEEN '2007-11-01' AND '2007-12-0423 59'

should be evaluated only for these 121 rows.

I have the follwing command in end of postgresql.conf file:

stats_start_collector = on
stats_row_level = on
autovacuum = on

So autovacuum should be running.

I tried

CREATE INDEX dok_kuupaev_kellaaeg_idx ON dok ((kuupaev||kellaaeg));

but got error

My fields are kuupaev date  and  kellaaeg char(5)
kellaaeg is in format hh mm

I compare this always with kuupaev||kellaaeg

'2007-12-0423 59' is my valid datetime for to be used for this conversion.

I can probably convert kuupaev||kellaaeg to a datetime and use datetime
comparison instead of this. Will this increase perfomance ?

dok.kuupaev type is DATE

dok.kellaaeg type is     character(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''
and is used to represent dokument time in format   hh mm

Database encoding is UTF-8 , cluster locale is estonian, OS is Windows 2003
server.

dok table full definition is below.
What other information do you need ?

I used copy and paste from pgAdmin.
I checked my message and it seems that explain output is OK, havent found
any truncation.
So I do'nt understand this.

Postgres must use index on kuupaev in both queries.
This index filters out most rows.

>> Do you have an index along the lines of

I do'nt have this index.
dok.kuupaev||dok.kellaaeg conditon should applied after index search is
performed.
It filters out only a small number of rows additionally to the plain kuupaev
filter.
So adding index on dok.kuupaev||dok.kellaaeg  is not reasonable IMHO.

Please confirm that most reasonable way to fix this to add this index, I
will add this.

This schema is migrated from dbms where there was no datetime support.
char(5) field is used to express time  in form   hh mm
This schema is deployed in a large number of servers.
Its change would be very expensive. change requires huge amout of  work time
to re-write applications, create database conversion scripts, re-write
pl/sql triggers, test and fix new bugs causes by change.

Your problem is that it is doing that, except postgres is assuming that
it does filter more rows. In actual fact the extra condition is making
no difference whatsoever.

So postgres assumes the result will only give 10 rows and so a nested
loop is better.

As for the index problem, I don't know but it will probably work better.

Have a nice day,

Thank you.
I ran manually analyze command.
After that query runs fast.
I have enabled autovacuum and statitics collection in config file.
Every day a lot of rows are added to dok table.

However it seems that statitics is not collected (autovacuum is not running)

Any idea autovacuum is not running ?
