Hi
There is interesting query on stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33418157/query-too-slow-in-postgresql-in-table-with-12m-rows - and it looks like planner issue.set enable_seqscan to off;
create table test1(a int, b int);
create index on test1(a);
postgres=# explain select * from test1 where a = 1 and b = 2;
QUERY PLAN
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Bitmap Heap Scan on test1 (cost=4.24..14.94 rows=1 width=8)
Recheck Cond: (a = 1)
Filter: (b = 2)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on test1_a_idx (cost=0.00..4.24 rows=11 width=0)
Index Cond: (a = 1)
(5 rows)
create table test2(a timestamp with time zone, b int);
create index on test2(a);

create index on test2(a);
analyze test2;
-- I was surprised, so following query can use index

but
why, the index isn't used in this case?
postgres=# explain select a,b from test2 where a at time zone 'America/Santiago' >= now() at time zone 'America/Santiago' ;

(2 rows)
or in this case?
postgres=# explain select a from test2 where a at time zone 'America/Santiago' >= now() at time zone 'America/Santiago' and b = 1 ;

Composite index fixes it. But it should to work without composite index too?
create index on test2(a,b);
postgres=# explain select a from test2 where a at time zone 'America/Santiago' >= now() at time zone 'America/Santiago' and b = 1 ;

══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Index Cond: (b = 1)
Filter: (timezone('America/Santiago'::text, a) >= timezone('America/Santiago'::text, now()))
(3 rows)
create index on test2(a,b);

Tested on master.
