Re: Optimization of this SQL sentence

Off hanbd I can't recommend anything, bur perhaps you could post the details of the tables (columns, indexes),and some info on what version of postgres you are using.

Are the tables recently analyzed ? How many rows in them ?

This SQL sentence is very simple. I need to get better results. I have
tried some posibilities and I didn't get good results.

SELECT max(idcomment)
FROM ficha vf
INNER JOIN comment c ON (vf.idficha=c.idfile AND (idestado=3 OR
idestado=4))
WHERE idstatus=3
AND ctype=1

QUERY PLAN

Aggregate (cost=2730.75..2730.76 rows=1 width=4) (actual
time=188.463..188.469 rows=1 loops=1)

-> Hash Join (cost=1403.44..2730.72 rows=11 width=4) (actual
time=141.464..185.404 rows=513 loops=1)

Hash Cond: ("outer".idfile = "inner".idficha)

-> Seq Scan on "comment" c (cost=0.00..1321.75 rows=1083
width=8) (actual time=0.291..36.112 rows=642 loops=1)

Filter: ((idstatus = 3) AND (ctype = 1))

-> Hash (cost=1403.00..1403.00 rows=178 width=4) (actual
time=141.004..141.004 rows=6282 loops=1)

-> Seq Scan on ficha vf (cost=0.00..1403.00 rows=178
width=4) (actual time=0.071..97.885 rows=6282 loops=1)

Filter: (((idestado)::text = '3'::text) OR
((idestado)::text = '4'::text))

Total runtime: 188.809 ms

Thanks in advance,
