Docs feedback - feature proposal: Add an option for visualising EXPLAIN
Problem to solve
Even after visualising Postgres EXPLAIN in explain.depesz.com, it often isn't clear what could be done to speed up the query.
Intended users
Software Developers and Data Analysts.
Further details
Save time working out why a query is slow and what could be done about it, ultimately resulting in a faster cycle.
Proposal
Add pgMustard to the list of tools suggested in the documentation: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/understanding_explain_plans.html#what-makes-a-bad-plan
Permissions and Security
Not applicable.
Documentation
This is a change to an existing documentation page, so it's unlikely to need further documentation.
Testing
Not applicable, but a free trial of pgMustard is available if testing is desirable first.
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
Less time spent on any optimisation tasks, and a higher success rate (if either of those are measured?)
