Explain Analyze understanding
Hi,
I need to improve performance for a particular SQL command but facing
difficulties to understand the explain results.
Is there somewhere a tool could help on this?
I've stored the SQL code and corresponding explain analyze at
SQL: http://www.opendb.com.br/v1/sql.txt
Explain: http://www.opendb.com.br/v1/explain.txt
in case some one could identify some improvement that could be done to the
SQL or table structures in order to get better command performance.
Thank you!

you're joining like 50 tables in nested selects, getting 200 rows, and
its only taking 3.5 seconds? where's the problem?
you can paste EXPLAIN output into http://explain.depesz.com and get
output like http://explain.depesz.com/s/hfWp which helps format it for
better understanding.
in this case, most of the time (3.35s worth) appears to be spent on
sorts and an nidex scan inside an inner merge join thats processing
77000 rows.
