Is there any way to force analyze to run on a whole table?

Is there any way to force analyze to run on a whole table? In other words for large
tables to avoid sampling? What happens if I run a vacuum analyze?

No. IIRC the sample size is 300 * <largest column statistic setting>,
so at most 300k rows. In the current implementation, ANALYZE will
actually suck the entire sample into memory, so you really really don't
want it trying to analyze millions of rows anyway...

I asked earlier about ways of doing an UPDATE involving a left outer join and got some very useful feedback. This has thrown up a (to me) strange anomaly about the speed of such an update. The input to this query is a fairly large (the example I'm working with has 335,000 rows) set of records containing numbers to be looked up in the lookup table. This lookup table has 239 rows.

I build a table to test the theory that PGSQL wouldn't use an index to satisfy 'SELECT * FROM table WHERE field IS NOT NULL'. Sure enough it wasn't using the index, but it seems that's because there's no stats to be had. What am I doing wrong? This is version 7.3.4. stats=# \t Showing only tuples. stats=# select * from pg_stats where tablename='t'; stats=# analyze t;

Hi, all. We are running PostgreSQL 7.2.2 (7.4.1 in a few weeks). We have a pesky legacy application which periodically leaves open idle connections. (I know... fix the application). In the short term, I would like to find out if the database engine has a time-out configuration option for idle connections where it would force-close the connections. Is there such an option?

query is select t2.field4, t1.* from t1 left outer join t2 on t2.field1 = t1.field1 and t2.field2 = t1.field2 There are 55k rows in t1 (103 fields) and 10k in t2 (4 fields, 4 is text). before vacuum analyze the query gave 10k rows like it was doing an inner join. after vacuum analyze gave the full 55k.

I have been using the EXPLAIN ANALYZE command to debug some performance bottlenecks in my database. In doing so, I have found an oddity (to me anyway). The "19ms" total runtime reported below actually takes 25 seconds on my computer (no other CPU intensive processes running). Is this normal for EXPLAIN ANALYZE to report a total runtime so vastly different from wall clock time? During the "explain ANALYZE delete from msgid;" the CPU is...

I'm getting a slew of these repeatable errors when running ANALYZE and/or VACUUM ANALYZE (from an autovacuum process) against a 7.3.4 cluster on HP-UX B.11.00: 2004-09-29 18:14:53.621 ERROR: Memory exhausted in AllocSetAlloc(1189) This error is in the FAQ, but that answer does not appear applicable. The error is occurring on 2 different databases, on multiple tables, and all tables involved are frequently updated.

Hi, I want to report a problem I had with splitting a table using the anaylze tool. I started with 92000 records and in the child table ended up with around 10,000 records. Now I assumed that access did it's best to remove duplicates and achieve a degree of data normalization. Which was indeed the case. All well and good until a few weeks later I discover to my horror.....missing data! and so I repeated the whole scenario and ended...

Hi, I have two different applications running on 2003 both in two different vitrual directories. One application runs on the .NET framework 1.1 whilst the other runs on 2.0. If I change the framework version (via IIS admin ASP.NET tab) for either application (Initally the 2.0 app was recognised by IIS as 1.1) does this force IIS to restart? ?? Any links to further reading would be good.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
