[GENERAL] GEQO and KSQO problem.

i tried your query.
This is query plan for select with union clause

EXPLAIN

I think that it is too slow.
May be optimizer is more intellect in Postgres v.6.5.1?
I use Postgres v.6.4.2.

The postgres optimizer was never very good with OR clauses. That's why I
suggested the format with the regular expressions in the end of my message.
I wonder if you can get a better result by using a union:

SELECT .....
WHERE
  ....
  AND lower(SOTRUD.EMAIL) LIKE '%matukin@hotmail.com%'
UNION
SELECT .....
WHERE
  ....
  AND lower(SOTRUD.EMAIL) LIKE '%knirti@kaluga.ru%'
..

etc.

Also try UNION ALL.
