Hi,

Is it possible to get this query run faster than it does now, by adding
indexes, changing the query?

SELECT customers.objectid FROM prototype.customers, prototype.addresses
WHERE
customers.contactaddress = addresses.objectid
ORDER BY zipCode asc, housenumber asc
LIMIT 1 OFFSET 283745

Explain:

Limit (cost=90956.71..90956.71 rows=1 width=55)
-> Sort (cost=90247.34..91169.63 rows=368915 width=55)
Sort Key: addresses.zipcode, addresses.housenumber
-> Hash Join (cost=14598.44..56135.75 rows=368915 width=55)
Hash Cond: ("outer".contactaddress = "inner".objectid)
-> Seq Scan on customers (cost=0.00..31392.15
rows=368915 width=80)
-> Hash (cost=13675.15..13675.15 rows=369315 width=55)
-> Seq Scan on addresses (cost=0.00..13675.15
rows=369315 width=55)

The customers table has an index on contactaddress and objectid.
The addresses table has an index on zipcode+housenumber and objectid.

TIA
