Hello

The release notes for 9.2.2 say this:

"... However, you may need to perform REINDEX operations to correct
problems in concurrently-built indexes, as described in the first
changelog item below....."

But the 9.1.7 note says nothing about this, even when this version has
the same patch for 'CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY' as 9.2.2

Why don't you try to reindex the indexes in your database and see it
this helps?
