no, as this is syntaxically incorrect. oops

I meant:

delete from custinfo
where custinfo.UserID=custinfotemp.userid
and
custinfotemp.updateStatus='D';

---------------------------------------------
    explain delete from t1 where t1.c1 = t2.c1;

Merge Join  (cost=200000139.66..200000164.66 rows=10000 width=14)
   ->  Sort  (cost=100000069.83..100000069.83 rows=1000 width=10)
         ->  Seq Scan on t1  (cost=100000000.00..100000020.00 rows=1000 width=10)
   ->  Sort  (cost=100000069.83..100000069.83 rows=1000 width=4)
         ->  Seq Scan on t2  (cost=100000000.00..100000020.00 rows=1000 width=4)


ps: An interesting notice in the errlog:

    NOTICE:  Adding missing FROM-clause entry for table "t2"

I don't know how to remove this *non*enoying notice :)

Try this

DELETE FROM custinfo
WHERE
  custinfo.UserID           = custinfotemp.userid AND
  custinfotemp.updateStatus = 'D';

It would be good to have indexs on UserID on both tables.

Seeing a table named "custinfotemp" kind of raises a red
flag.  Possibly you may want to re-think the design if
you are moving data between tables that is really the
same data.
