postgresql13-llvm jit-13.5-1PGDG.rhel8.x86_64
I was trying to upgrade my test 13.4 instance on Oracle Linux 8.4 (x86_64) to 13.5. I can't upgrade postgresql13-llvm jit because Oracle's and Red Hat repositories still don't have the required version of llvm (12.1.0.2): root@postgres mgogala]# rpm -qa|grep llvm llvm-libs-11.0.1-2.0.1.module+el8.4.0+20397+f876858a.x86_64 llvm7.0-libs-7.0.1-7.el8.x86_64 llvm-test-11.0.1-2.0.1.module+el8.4.0+20397+f876858a.x86_64 llvm-11.0.1-2.0.1.module+el8.4.0+20397+f876858a.x86_64 llvm-static-11.0.1-2.0.1.module+el8.4.0+20397+f876858a.x86_64 llvm-devel-11.0.1-2.0.1.module+el8.4.0+20397+f876858a.x86_64 [root@postgres mgogala]# I am getting the following error: postgresql13-llvm jit-13.5-1PGDG.rhel8.x86_64 requires libLLVM-12.so()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed. There is a CentOS8-stream version which solves the problem but I cannot use that in the office. I will probably have to wait for another month before OL8 has everything that I need in its repositories. Now, the question is what kind of an impact will running without llvm-jit have? According to the links below, llvm-jit effects are quite spectacular: https://llvm.org/devmtg/2016-09/slides/Melnik-PostgreSQLLLVM.pdf https://www.pgcon.org/2017/schedule/events/1092.en.html Now, the question is whether anyone on this list can quantify the difference? What would be a better option? To wait for the repos to receive the necessary packages or to run without llvm-jit? In the office I have some rather large databases and CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY and REINDEX CONCURRENTLY fixes in 13.5 are highly desired but not at the cost of the overall application performance.

On usual large queries, the effect of JIT was about 20%. Unfortunately, JIT is sensitive to estimation, and the JIT sometimes increases seconds to queries, although without JIT this query is executed in ms. When you use a query that can be well calculated in parallel, then positive effect of JIT is less.
