Use this paginator to make admin pages load more quickly for large tables when using PostgreSQL. It uses the reltuples statistic instead of counting the rows when there is no where clause. To use this code, add the following in your admin:
class BigTableAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
paginator = LargeTablePaginator
def get_changelist(self, request, **kwargs):
return LargeTableChangeList
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 | from django.contrib.admin.options import IncorrectLookupParameters

For django 1.4 compatibility, should get rid of the MAX_SHOW_ALL_ALLOWED import and change the LargeTableChangeList class thusly:
