If you have a lot of 'Invalid' entries, a partial index will help:
CREATE INDEX index_entries_on_campaign_id_valid ON entries(campaign_id) WHERE status <> 'Invalid';
> Here's the explain:
An EXPLAIN ANALYZE is always better, fwiw.
I noticed you have a contestants.* plus a GROUP BY contestants.id,
which suggests that a) this is not the exact query, or b) id is the only
column in that table. Either way, if you only need the contestant id, you
can remove that table from the query, and just use entries.contestant_id instead,
getting rid of the IN() clause in the process:
SELECT e.contestant_id, SUM(e.worth) AS db_entries, COUNT(e.id) AS db_actions
FROM entries e
JOIN campaigns c ON (c.id = e.campaign_id AND c.site_id = $1)
AND e.status <> 'Invalid'
GROUP BY e.contestant_id
ORDER BY db_actions DESC
LIMIT 20 OFFSET 0;
