so, you DO have an index. what type does this function q3c_ang2ipix(real,real) return ? googling it suggested a bigint, which means every 12 byte (real,real,int) row has a corresponding b-tree entry of 8 bytes plus b-tree stuff. I see you used cluster on this, did you do the CLUSTER after populating the table, and before checking the pg_total_relation_size that you reported as 20X your data ?
