So that's showing a runtime of 48 ms, not 900. For retrieving 18584
rows, doesn't sound that bad to me.
(If the planner had had a better rowcount estimate, it'd likely have
not bothered with the index at all but just done a seqscan. This is
a consequence of the lack of any very useful stats for JSONB columns,
which is something we hope to address soon; but it's not done in 9.4
and likely won't be in 9.5 either ...)
