You can execute several queries with the three different values provided
by Scott and Josh.
- SET random_page_cost = 2.0
First execution of the queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE
- SET random_page_cost = 1.4
Second execution of the queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE
- SET random_page_cost = 1.2
Second execution of the queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE
And then, you can compare the pattern behind these queries executions
