Contrary to your expectations, this is _not_ a query you'd expect to be fast
in Postgres. Try real queries from your application instead -- most likely,
you'll find them to be much master. (If not, come back with the query, the
schema and the EXPLAIN ANALYZE output of your query, and you'll usually get
help nailing down the issues. :-) )
