Here's how I set it up:

create table stuff (id serial, a text, b int, c int, d text, e text, f
int, g int, h text, thing int);

insert into stuff (a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,thing) select 'nfewiufn weoifn
weiou fnwe fnoi weuoifn woeuifniunfeiwodnjnfdoewnfjienfjioe
wneinrienrf',53424524,26575757,'fhdsouhfuisdhfiudshif sdhiuf iu hfius
dhfiu sdiuf dsihfiusdhiufhdsiufhdsiu fhiuds fhiusd fiuds fidsf iuds
fiu dsiuf sdhiu','dfoisdhjfojdsoifjdiosjfoidsjiofjds',52944234,5246463,'fdfidsjoifjdsoifjoidsjfodsjfd',ceil(random()*350)
from generate_series(1,6000000);

insert into stuff (a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,thing) select 'nfewiufn weoifn
weiou fnwe fnoi weuoifn woeuifniunfeiwodnjnfdoewnfjienfjioe
wneinrienrf',53424524,26575757,'fhdsouhfuisdhfiudshif sdhiuf iu hfius
dhfiu sdiuf dsihfiusdhiufhdsiufhdsiu fhiuds fhiusd fiuds fidsf iuds
fiu dsiuf sdhiu','dfoisdhjfojdsoifjdiosjfoidsjiofjds',52944234,5246463,'fdfidsjoifjdsoifjoidsjfodsjfd',ceil(random()*50)
from generate_series(1,9000000);

create index idx_stuff_thing on stuff (thing);

vacuum analyse stuff;

Testing without all the extra columns in the table yields a similar
result pattern.
