I do call the query for each neighbour node to find which one is better in building my path.
I think I will try the first way you mentioned. I also found some references using BTREE indexes:CREATE INDEX nodes_tags_btree_historic_idx on nodes USING BTREE ((tags ? 'historic'));
CREATE INDEX nodes_tags_btree_tourist_idx on nodes USING BTREE ((tags ? 'tourist));
Do you think this could make a difference?

Any improvement is welcomed. The overall performance of the application
is not very good. It takes about 200 seconds to compute a path for not
so far star and end points.
There's only two ways I can see to get this much below 20ms. This will only work if you want a very restricted range of tags.

Drop the tag index and create multiple geometry indexes instead:
CREATE INDEX node_geo_tourist_idx <index details> WHERE tags ? 'tourist';
CREATE INDEX node_geo_tourist_idx <index details> WHERE tags ? 'history';
etc.
This will only work if you have a literal WHERE clause that checks the tag. It should be fast though.
The second way would be to delete all the nodes that aren't tagged tourist or history. That assumes you are never interested in them of course.Not important - I was just curious.
How exactly should I post the explain without the index? Do I have to
drop all created indexes for the tags column? It takes some time to
create them back.
