Hi,
Hiroshi Inoue:

test=> vacuum pg_index;

VACUUM
OK, so I suppose I should do it as the postgres user...
test=> vacuum pg_index;
VACUUM
The debug output says:
DEBUG: --Relation pg_index--
DEBUG: Pages 448: Changed 0, reaped 448, Empty 0, New 0; Tup 34: Vac 21443, Keep/VTL 0/0, Crash 0, UnUsed 0, MinLen

... which helped. A lot.
Thanks, everybody. The first quick benchmark run I did afterwards states
that PostgreSQL is now only half as fast as MySQL, instead of the factor
of 30 seen previously, on the MySQL benchmark test. ;-)
