Hello,

I just upgraded with pg_dump/restore from PostgreSQL 8.3.11 to 8.4.4 but
I'm having major performance problems with a query with many left joins.
Problem is that costs are now very, very, very high (was ok in 8.3).
Analyze has been done. Indexes are of course there.

-> Merge Left Join
(cost=1750660.22..4273805884876845789194861338991916289697885665127154313046252183850255795798561612107149662486528.00
rows=238233578115856634454073334945297075430094545596765511255148896328828230572227215727052643001958400
width=16)
Merge Cond: (l.id = d2000903.fk_id)

Details with execution plan can be found at:

I know that the data model is key/value pairs but it worked well in 8.3. I
need this flexibility.

Any ideas?

Thnx.

Ciao,
Gerhard
