Table fresh loaded from dump on test server... So no index bloat for sure...
As for comparing physical sizes, right single column index indeed smaller then wrong one:
Right index:
hh=# SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('resume_last_change_time_idx'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
125 MB
(1 row)
Wrong index:
hh=# SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('resume_user_id_disabled_is_finished_last_change_time_idx'));
pg_size_pretty
----------------
226 MB
(1 row)
