Hi Marc
Thanks a lot for your hint!
You mean doing a "SET track_counts (true);" for the whole session?
That would be ok if it would be possible just for the gin index.
It's obviously an issue of the planner estimation costs.
The data I'm speaking about ("movies") has a text attribute which has
a length of more than 8K so it's obviously having to do with
detoasting.
But the thoughts about @@ operators together with this GIN index seem
also to be valid.
I hope this issue is being tracked in preparation for 9.3.
Regards, Stefan
