Answer 1

No offense but to check for performance of sql I executed some of the above mentioned solutiona pgsql.

Let me share you Statistics of top 3 solution approaches that I come across.

1) Took : 1.58 MS Avg

2) Took : 2.87 MS Avg

3) Took : 3.95 MS Avg

Now try this :

 SELECT * FROM table WHERE DATE_TRUNC('day', date ) >= Start Date AND DATE_TRUNC('day', date ) <= End Date

Now this solution took : 1.61 Avg.

And best solution is 1st that suggested by marco-mariani
