EXPLAIN ANALYZE for bitmapAnd and bitmapOr scans always reports rows = 0 - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

From this snipped you can see that the Bitmap Heap scan returns 123
rows, but the BitmapAnd under it returns 0.  I would find it useful to
determine how many rows were thrown out by the recheck.

                      ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on d  (cost=4959.18..16848.23
rows=754 width=10) (actual time=344.126..1534.198 rows=123 loops=1)
                            Recheck Cond: ((s = $0) AND (sdate >=
'2007-06-30'::date) AND (sdate <= '2007-07-30'::date))
