Hey guys, I'm trying to understand the performance impact of "Index Recheck", I googled for Index Recheck, but didn't find much details about it, where can I know more about it? And how did you know the performance is being significantly hurt by inadequate work_mem? I'm running PG 9.6.1, built from source.
