For some reason, I have a rather large (to me) query, with numerous inner
joins, accessing a remote server, and it is taking about twenty times longer
than most queries to the same database.
The query itself is built programmaticall y within my application, and
example of which is below. I am hoping someone in the group may have some
insight into why this query is so slow, suggesting perhaps a better
structure for it, such that I can go back in and rewrite my code that
creates such queries.
Thanks in advance, Ike

First I'd check whether all those joined tables have indexes on the id
field. If they don't, create them and check again.
If you don't have duplicates you can omit the "DISTINCT" saving the db a
lot of work.

I have a script running on PHP v4.3.6 (cgi) that hangs forever
in a call to the Postgres pg_get_result() function when and only
when the query length is 65536 or more bytes.
The query is a simple INSERT, of a single ASCII value into a
'text' type field, and works fine for shorter queries.
(As the code first calls pg_escape_string() on the value to be
inserted, I'm sure the problem doesn't relate to bad characters
in the data.)
