More information about my setup:
Postgres version:
PostgreSQL 10.9 (Debian 10.9-1.pgdg90+1) on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516, 64-bit
Table schema:
CREATE TABLE public.projects (
misc jsonb DEFAULT '{}'::jsonb NOT NULL
);
Explain analyze:
explain analyze update projects set misc = misc - 'foo';
Update on projects (cost=0.00..4240.93 rows=10314 width=1149) (actual time=346318.291..346318.295 rows=0 loops=1)
-> Seq Scan on projects (cost=0.00..4240.93 rows=10314 width=1149) (actual time=1.011..266.435 rows=10314 loops=1)

Figured out that it's due to the trigger. Thanks for your help, Adrian!

Provide some useful information:
1) Postgres version
2) Table schema
3) Explain analyze of query
