Clustering can correct situations where the query planner chooses the wrong method. We had a two-column table of about
25,000rows with an index on the second column. Even after vacuuming and analyzing, the query planner estimated an index
scanwould take almost 8 times a long as a sequential scan. Forcing index usage proved otherwise. Clustering fixed the
problemand even halved the query times.
