Message: Re: Queries containing ORDER BY and LIMIT started to work slowly
<div>Thanks for the response.</div><div>Sure, I thought about it and even bought another drive. The current drive is SSD, as far as I'm concerned write operations degrade SSDs.</div><div> </div><div>Even so, why other queries work fine? Why the query joining two tables instead of three works fine?</div><div> </div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Serg</div><div> </div><div>30.08.2023, 00:07, "Rick Otten" &lt;rottenwindfish@gmail.com&gt;:</div><blockquote><div><div> </div> <div><div>On Tue, Aug 29, 2023 at 3:57 PM Rondat Flyag &lt;<a href="mailto:rondatflyag@yandex.ru" rel="noopener noreferrer">rondatflyag@yandex.ru</a>&gt; wrote:</div><blockquote style="border-left-color:rgb( 204 , 204 , 204 );border-left-style:solid;border-left-width:1px;margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;padding-left:1ex"><div>I took the dump just to store it on another storage (external HDD).
