It is even smarter a little bit more:
[local]:5432 grayhemp@grayhemp=# create index h_idx1 on h (n) where v
is not null;
CREATE INDEX
[local]:5432 grayhemp@grayhemp=# explain analyze select * from h where
v = '0.5';
QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on h (cost=1616.10..8494.68 rows=1 width=30)
(actual time=111.735..111.735 rows=0 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (v IS NOT NULL)
Filter: (v = '0.5'::text)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on h_idx1 (cost=0.00..1616.10 rows=102367
width=0) (actual time=19.027..19.027 rows=100271 loops=1)
(5 rows)
