Re: BTREE index: field ordering

Moreno,

You have two lines in your WHERE clause commented out, the first line is a duplicate check on flag = TRUE, and the other line involves several checks on the "tipo" column. Will the final query or set of related queries actually need to filter on the "tipo" column? You currently have "tipo" in second place in your candidate index.

Thanks,
Kevin

Subject: BTREE index: field ordering
 
Hi,
Postgres 16.4 (planning to go on 17.4)
I'm creating some indexes based on some slow query reported by logs.
These queries involve a WHERE with more than 5 fields, that are matching by =, <>, LIKE and IN()
I read that equality fields must be first, then the others.
Is it correct?

Based on this query

SELECT COUNT(id) AS total
                FROM nx.tbl1
                WHERE
            (date_order >= '2025-03-21')
            AND (date_order <= '2025-03-29')
            AND (flag = TRUE)
            AND ((
              -- (flag = TRUE)
              -- AND (((tipo <> 'C') AND (tipo <> 'V') AND (tipo <> 'F')) OR (tipo IS NULL) OR (tipo = ''))
              (((op <> 'C') OR (op IS NULL)) OR (tipo = 'F'))
              AND (s_state IN ('ENQ','WFR','BLQ','BLR','WFA','FRW','FRO','0000','0001'))
              AND (tiporic IS NOT NULL)
              AND (tiporic NOT LIKE '%cart%')
            ) OR (
              (tiporic LIKE '%cart%') AND (S_state <> 'CON') AND (s_state <> '0002') AND ((op <> 'C') OR (op IS NULL))
            ))  AND (priv IS NULL OR priv = false OR (priv = true and idpriv = 'TEST')));

Should the following index be correct?

CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS tbl1_count_idx on nx.tbl1 USING BTREE(flag, tipo, op, priv, idpriv, date_order, s_state, tiporic);

Would it be better to create a separate GIN/GIST index for the field matched with LIKE?

Thanks in advance,
Moreno
