That seems strange to me also, particularly if the index column ordering
is indeed actor_id,case_id and not the other way round --- without some
constraint on actor_id it shouldn't be *possible* to use such an index.
Could you send me a schema dump (pg_dump -s) for experimentation?
Also, which PG version are you using?
