  1. INDEX

    Waruna Geekiyanage <waruna@nirmani.com> — 2002-09-28T15:50:13Z

    When a table is created with a primary key it generates a index.
    Dos the queries on that table use that index automatically?
    Do I need to reindex that index after insertions?

    Only if you analyse the table, and it's a "win".  See the various
    past discussion on -general, for instance, about index use, and the
    FAQ.

    No, but you need to analyse.
