This is the latest query execution with explain after adding indexing on
both columns.
Aggregate (cost=174173.57..174173.58 rows=1 width=8) (actual
time=65087.657..65087.658 rows=1 loops=1)
-> Bitmap Heap Scan on fields (cost=1382.56..174042.61 rows=52386
width=0) (actual time=160.340..65024.533 rows=31857 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: ((field)::text = 'Champlin'::text)
Heap Blocks: exact=31433
-> Bitmap Index Scan on index_field (cost=0.00..1369.46
rows=52386 width=0) (actual time=125.078..125.079 rows=31857 loops=1)
Index Cond: ((field)::text = 'Champlin'::text)
Planning Time: 8.595 ms
Execution Time: 65093.508 ms
That very clearly does not use the index-only scan, so it's not
surprising it's not any faster. You need to find out why the planner
makes that decision.
