Hi Michael,

I think your index definitions need to be on the particular attribute from
attributes and not attributes itself. That works but it does not apply to
the query you show above. I think that the binary json type in 9.4 will
do what you want. I have not worked with it myself, just looked at the docs.

Regards,
Ken
