Re: Query runs forever after upgrading to 9.3

It was installed in customer site at May 2012 in Windows 2003 server and
latest RTM version of Postgres
x32 in this time was used.

In this year server was upgraded to Windows 2008 x64 server and Postgres 9.3
x64 was used, database was restored from backup copy.
After that this query started to run forever so I assumed that this was
Postgres version issue.

It is probably possible to try to reproduce the issue by restoring it to
earlier version.

I fixed the issue by using

create index tempkaivetoode on tempkaive(toode);
create index tempalgemutoode on tempalgsemu(toode);

and using exists.

Will your suggestion run faster ? Is it reasonable to switch to use your
suggestion ?
