Защо използването на едно и също поле при филтриране води до различно време за изпълнение? (различно използване на индекс)

Като решение на проблема можем допълнително да SELECT псевдоним за колона, използвана в PARTITION BY изразяване. След това PG прилага оптимизация и използва индекс.

Отговорът на въпроса може да бъде:PG не прилага оптимизация, ако се използва съставен тип . Забележете как работи:

PARTITION | FILTER | IS USED?
------------------------------
ALIAS     | ORIG   | NO
ALIAS     | ALIAS  | YES
ORIG      | ALIAS  | NO
ORIG      | ORIG   | NO
