У меня есть БД на Postgre (сервер на Windows). В конфигурациях внесла изменения - shared_buffers = 1GB, temp_buffers = 256MB, work_mem = 512MB. Индексы есть на всех часто используемых колонках. Однако выполнение запросов все равно происходит медленно.
Пример запроса -
select distinct us_category_id as cat, count(h_user_id) as res from web_hits
inner join users on h_user_id = us_id
where (h_datetime)::date = ('2015-06-26')::date and us_category_id != ''
group by us_category_id

Explain analyse:

Может кто чего умного подскажет?
