Aha, yeah I recall reading suggestions akin to those for SSDs. Nice!<p>There&#x27;s also `ALTER TABLE SET STATISTICS` and default_statistics_target config parameter (for supposedly smart query planning on the fly?) (though would have to re-read to recall how these things work - off to bed soon): <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.postgresql.org&#x2F;docs&#x2F;current&#x2F;static&#x2F;runtime-config-query.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.postgresql.org&#x2F;docs&#x2F;current&#x2F;static&#x2F;runtime-config...</a> (<i>edit</i> ah you included the same link - lots of good stuff here - ahh I like Postgres documentation)
