The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      6719
Logged by:          BLove
Email address:      blove...@hotmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.1.3
Operating system:   Centos 5
Description:        

After doing an equality search on an indexed field, PG is doing a filter on
the same value using a regex.  That appears to be a useless operation that
will only consume cpu cycles.

explain select * from transactions.subscriber_504700_txns_y2012m05 lh where
lh.account_code LIKE '34016975\_DAT\_FR\_HF';
                                                                  QUERY PLAN
                                                                 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using idx_subscriber_504700_txns_y2012m05_account_code on
subscriber_504700_txns_y2012m05 lh  (cost=0.00..17.02 rows=3 width=131)
   Index Cond: (account_code = '34016975_DAT_FR_HF'::text)
   Filter: (account_code ~~ '34016975\_DAT\_FR\_HF'::text)
