Right. For my example in the other mail:
test=*# create index idx_foo on foo(i);
CREATE INDEX
test=*# explain analyse select * from foo where i is null;
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on foo (cost=95.11..4780.49 rows=5000 width=8) (actual time=0.052..0.053 rows=1 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (i IS NULL)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_foo (cost=0.00..93.86 rows=5000 width=0) (actual time=0.047..0.047 rows=1 loops=1)
Index Cond: (i IS NULL)
Total runtime: 0.076 ms
