During my test run, there was one offending query invocation, a simple SELECT * FROM job WHERE field = $1 Of course the actual query specified the list of fields as it was generated by Hibernate, but that is what it boils down to - no joins etc. The column on which was queried is a VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL, not unique nor indexed (though in practice most values are unique).
Be careful about your assumptions there... SELECT * can have redically different performance than selecting individual fields. In particular, if you select something that's been toasted external, that's going to produce it's own index scan of the toast table, which could then run into conflicts with vacuuming.
