These might not even be low enough. The reason why bitmap index scans
win over plain index scans, in general, is because you make one pass
through the heap to get all the rows you need instead of bouncing
around doing lots of random access. But of course if all the data is
in RAM then this argument falls down.
If these aren't enough to get the query planner to DTRT, then the OP
might want to try lowering them further and seeing how low he has to
go to flip the plan...
