I'm experiencing an issue similar to PostgreSQL query very slow with limit 1 and Extremely slow PostgreSQL query with ORDER and LIMIT clauses although in my case it doesn't matter if the LIMIT
is 1, 5 or 500.
Basically, when I run a query generated by Django's ORM without a limit, the query takes half a second but with the limit (added for pagination) it takes 7 seconds.
The query that takes 7 seconds is:
SELECT "buildout_itemdescription"."product_code_id",
MIN("buildout_lineitem"."unit_price") AS "min_price"
FROM "buildout_lineitem"
INNER JOIN "buildout_itemdescription"
ON ("buildout_lineitem"."item_description_id" = "buildout_itemdescription"."id")
WHERE (("buildout_lineitem"."report_file_id" IN (154, 172, 155, 181, 174, 156, 157, 182, 175, 176, 183, 158, 177, 159, 179, 178, 164, 180, 367, 165, 173, 166, 167, 168, 368, 422, 370, 169, 1335, 1323, 161, 160, 162, 170, 171, 676, 151, 163, 980, 152, 369, 153, 963, 1718, 881, 617, 1759, 1780, 636, 1199, 1243, 947, 1163, 1422, 1009, 1407, 1035, 1241, 1077, 1271, 1111, 1130, 1489, 1507, 1555, 1600, 1619, 1663)
AND "buildout_lineitem"."unit_price" > 0
AND NOT ("buildout_itemdescription"."product_code_id" IS NULL)
AND "buildout_lineitem"."date" >= '2014-04-20'::date
AND "buildout_lineitem"."date" <= '2019-03-25'::date))
GROUP BY "buildout_itemdescription"."product_code_id"
ORDER BY "buildout_itemdescription"."product_code_id" LIMIT 5
And the other query is the same without the LIMIT 5.
Postgres is using very different plans for the two queries (HASH JOIN vs NESTED LOOP).

I've tried running analyze
on the tables in Postgres, but it didn't help. In the question I linked to, the answer was to add an index but I'm not sure what index I'd add here.
PostgreSQL mistakenly thinks that it can be fast by scanning the rows in product_code_id
order until it has found the first one satisfying all conditions, but it is not aware that the first matching row is not close to the beginning. So it ends up executing more of the nested loop join than it bargained for.
Removing that index would speed up the query, but if that is not an option, try using
...
ORDER BY buildout_itemdescription.product_code_id + 0
LIMIT 5
Then PostgreSQL cannot use the index.
