3,581 individual pokes into the heap to confirm tuple visibility and apply the deleted filter - that could indeed take a while.

I see.. The deleted column is:
deleted boolean
Should I create an index for that? How could I improve this query?
Does it execute as slowly when you run it for a 2nd time?
No, it doesn't. I think it's because of cache?
I would think because of the NOT "deleted" clause. Which is interesting, because that's a column which you conveniently didn't include in the definition below.
My mistake.
Would an Index be sufficient to solve the problem?
