When using a PreparedStatement the server must come up with a plan that
works for all parameter values. Since the parameter is unknown, the
generated plan doesn't use an index. Your options are to interpolate
the parameter yourself or connect using the protocolVersion=2 URL option
which will make the driver do the interpolation prior to passing the
query on to the server.
