Hello.
I'm running `PostgreSQL 7.2 on i586-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.95.3'
and have some problems with queries on a view.
I've got two tables: working one and archive and one view, I've attached the description.
And here is my problem: queries on a view runs to much time.
explain analyze select status, target, attempts from messages_all where message_id = 21823;

Too lo-o-ong for 13 000 tuples.
When I UNION 2 queries from this tables, query is pretty fast:
explain analyze select status, target, attempts from messages where message_id = 21823 union select status, target,
attemptsfrom messages_archive where message_id = 21823;

I've read manual on REWRITE RULES, but I can't get, how to create RULE to keep the
WHERE clause and separate one query into 2, and union them after.
Any suggestions?
