Hi Jesper,
Thanks your response:
psrdb=# \timing
Timing is on.
psrdb=# (SELECT
psrdb(#        MAX(item_rank.rank) AS maxRank
psrdb(# FROM
psrdb(#        item_rank item_rank
psrdb(# WHERE
psrdb(#        item_rank.project_id='proj2783'
psrdb(#         AND item_rank.pf_id IS NULL
psrdb(#
psrdb(# )
psrdb-# ORDER BY
psrdb-# maxRank DESC;
   maxrank
-------------
 20200000000
(1 row)

Time: 12.947 ms

It really seems to me that it should take less time.

 Specially when I see the result  with a different where clause like 
this one:
psrdb=# SELECT
psrdb-#        MAX(item_rank.rank) AS maxRank
psrdb-# FROM
psrdb-#        item_rank item_rank
psrdb-# WHERE
psrdb-#        item_rank.pf_id='plan1408'
psrdb-# ORDER BY
psrdb-# maxRank DESC;
   maxrank
-------------
 20504000000
(1 row)

Time: 2.582 ms


Thanks,
Anne
