Hi

I have an sql query which takes 20 seconds to be executed.

this sql query contain more than 870 id under the select where in ()
condition.

So , it is not a large row result but a big list of conditions to be
crossed.

I'm using postgresql 8.4.

Thanks for help

Add a column to the table which denotes the characteristic that those
870 ids share, and select based on that?

And maybe make sure that the id column is indexed, and see what
EXPLAIN says. http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Using_EXPLAIN

USE LEFT/JOIN instead of WHERE IN possibly would improve the performance..

In addition to the things already posted, post your query and the
