Oh, you're using contrib/intarray?
Pursuant to the thread you mention above, we removed intarray's <@ and @> operators (commit 65e758a4d3) but then
revertedthat (commit 156475a589) because of backwards-compatibility worries. It doesn't look like anything got done
aboutit since then. Perhaps the extension upgrade infrastructure would offer a solution now.

[ raised eyebrow... ] It's pretty hard to see how those would be a good idea. Not all problems are best solved by
hashjoins.

About the contrib/intarray, do I have other choices not using that one?
About the join, yeah, in our testing for DW-like queries, hash join does improved the performance greatly...
Thanks,
