We are seeing slowness(5 seconds) when we use both ORDER BY and LIMIT 30 clause whereas the same query is performing very good(200 MS) when using only ORDER BY clause. Also note that the query performed very fast(200 MS) when we increased LIMIT to 100 along with ORDER BY.

I think it's good to provide explain (analyze, buffers, costs,
verbose, summary) of the query and a reproducible test case (if
possible). It will be easier for those who investigate the issue.
