to 977ms! If I go the other way and SET STATISTICS 1 (or 0) I can bring down the list to one entry (setting to 0 seems equivalent and still keeps the one most common entry!?) and I will get the Index scan for all states except for that one most common state. But, of course, I don't want to undermine the whole stats mechanism, I just want the system to use the index that is so helpful and brings runtimes down by a factor of 4-8! What am I missing here?
In those rare cases wouldn't it make more sense to just set enable_seqscan to off; run query; set enable_seqscan to on;
