Hi,
Is there something in the roadmap to optimize the inner join?
I've this situation above. Table b ha
s 400 rows with null in the column b.
explain analyze select * from a inner join b on (b.b = a.a);
"Merge Join (cost=0.55..65.30 rows=599 width=16) (actual time=0.030..1.173 rows=599 loops=1)"
" Merge Cond: (a.a = b.b)"
" -> Index Scan using a_pkey on a (cost=0.28..35.27 rows=1000 width=8) (actual time=0.014..0.364 rows=1000 loops=1)"
" -> Index Scan using in01 on b (cost=0.28..33.27 rows=1000 width=8) (actual time=0.012..0.249 rows=600 loops=1)"
"Total runtime: 1.248 ms"
My question is: Why the planner isn't removing the null rows during the scan of table b?
