why do you need tsvector @@ q ? Much better to use tsquery = tsquery

test=# explain analyze select * from test_tsq where q = '400000x400000'::tsque>
QUERY PLAN

Seq Scan on test_tsq (cost=0.00..16667.01 rows=1 width=38) (actual time=129.208..341.111 rows=1 loops=1)

(3 rows)

'800' is the number of estimated rows, which is not good, since you got only
1 row.
