Advisor Insights

Check Frequency

Daily

Default Configuration

Detects queries whose execution plans from the last seven days contain a supported Query Advisor insight and creates an issue with severity "info". Currently detected problems are inefficient nested loops, wrong indexes due to ORDER BY, inefficient index use, late join filters with OR, or disk spills due to low work_mem. Ignores plans without a supported insight, and resolves automatically once the query's recent plans no longer show one.

Guidance

Impact

A tuning opportunity means the query is running less efficiently than it could, using more CPU and I/O and taking longer than necessary. Each insight comes with a concrete suggestion (such as a query rewrite or a configuration change) that you can validate in a Workbook before applying it.

You can learn about Query Advisor and the supported insight types in the Query Advisor documentation.

This check is enabled by default.
