Description:
Trigram regexes don't seem to handle ranges well.
Without ranges my query runs fine:
explain analyse select * from foos where foo::text ~ 'abc.+def'
Bitmap Heap Scan on foos (cost=23032.42..25164.29 rows=571 width=56)
(actual time=57.996..62.183 rows=43 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: ((foo)::text ~ 'abc.+def'::text)
Rows Removed by Index Recheck: 953
-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_foos_foo_trgm_gin (cost=0.00..23032.28
rows=571 width=0) (actual time=57.741..57.741 rows=996 loops=1)
Index Cond: ((foo)::text ~ 'abc.+def'::text)
Total runtime: 62.211 ms
With ranges:
explain analyse select * from foos where foo::text ~ 'abc[0-9]+def'
Bitmap Heap Scan on foos (cost=27588.42..29720.29 rows=571 width=56)
(actual time=7844.767..7844.993 rows=3 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: ((foo)::text ~ 'abc[0-9]+def'::text)
Rows Removed by Index Recheck: 35
-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_foos_foo_trgm_gin (cost=0.00..27588.28
rows=571 width=0) (actual time=7844.510..7844.510 rows=38 loops=1)
Index Cond: ((foo)::text ~ 'abc[0-9]+def'::text)
Total runtime: 7845.039 ms
