Sorry for the incomplete sentence.
Read it as:

In the original setup, the "UNIQUE" constraint had been dropped
*before* doing the tests. So the "slow" case is without the
UNIQUE constraint but with an index on NOT NULL fields.

The "fast" case was with the primary key on the very same fields
in the very same order.
