I also tried explain but found nothing special:
explain select * from data_table where thing_id in
(164438,112478,102941,112377,164442,181764,104028);
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on data_table (cost=31.75..579.10 rows=141 width=53)
Recheck Cond: (thing_id = ANY
('{164438,112478,102941,112377,164442,181764,104028}'::bigint[]))
-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_data_table (cost=0.00..31.71 rows=141 width=0)
Index Cond: (thing_id = ANY
('{164438,112478,102941,112377,164442,181764,104028}'::bigint[]))
