id_user is an INTEGER type.

Well what about this two selects:

a) SELECT DISTINCT ON (id_user) *
    FROM user_logs
   WHERE id_user = 5430
   ORDER BY id_user, id_user_log DESC;

b) CREATE VIEW last_user_logs AS
     SELECT DISTINCT ON (id_user) *
     FROM user_logs
     ORDER BY id_user, id_user_log DESC;

     SELECT *
     FROM last_user_logs
     WHERE id_user = 5430


I think that in the second case the filter is not pushed inside the view.

Ciao
Gaetano
