Rebecca Law 782514a0f1 Update the dao_fetch_todays_stats_for_service query.
We have an index on Notifications(service_id, created_at), by updating the query to use between created_at rather than date(created_at) this query will use the index. Changing the query plan to use an index scan rather than a sequence scan, see query plans below.
This query is still rather slow but is improved by this update.
