Postgres，不使用索引的简单查询

Question

PostgreSQL 9.5.0

我有一个名为message_attachments 的表，它有1931964 行。

我在该表中搜索了一个键，即message_id。

我也总是包含deleted_at is NULL 语句（例如软删除）。

创建了一个索引：

CREATE INDEX message_attachments_message_id_idx 
   ON message_attachments (message_id) 
WHERE deleted_at IS NULL;

所以它应该直接匹配这个查询：

EXPLAIN ANALYZE 
select * 
from "message_attachments" 
where "deleted_at" is null 
  and "message_id" = 33998052;

但生成的查询计划如下所示：

Seq Scan on message_attachments  (cost=0.00..69239.91 rows=4 width=149) (actual time=1667.850..1667.850 rows=0 loops=1)
   Filter: ((deleted_at IS NULL) AND (message_id = 33998052))
   Rows Removed by Filter: 1931896
 Planning time: 0.114 ms
 Execution time: 1667.885 ms

我在整个数据库中都使用了这样的索引，但不知何故，它似​​乎不喜欢在那个特定的表上使用它。

关于基数，最多有 5 列具有相同的值。

还在该表上运行了 ANALYZE 和 VACUUM ANALYZE。

         Index Cond: (deleted_at IS NULL)

这将在该表的第二个索引上运行，如下所示：（绝对不应该使用）

CREATE INDEX message_attachments_deleted_at_index ON message_attachments USING btree (deleted_at)

好的，我刚刚解决了这个问题。

我们以某种方式为一个在 php 中被杀死的查询设置了一个挂起的 LOCK，但几天前从未退出过 postgres 上的进程。

因此，对于遇到相同问题的每个人，请检查您的 LOCKS：

SELECT relation::regclass, * FROM pg_locks WHERE NOT GRANTED;

另外，如果几天前有任何连接打开：

select * from pg_stat_activity order by query_start limit 10;
