This gin index has always been problematic. Recreation and updates

Now I had to update 1M rows of that table but for columns
that doesn't involve the tsvector
I dropped the trigger to update the tsvector so that when rows get
updated the trigger won't be called so things should be faster...
but still it is taking forever.
all indexes will be updated, so if you might want to drop indexes and
rebuild from the scratch.
begin;
set constraints all deferred;
select * from FT1IDX_trigger_drop();
update catalog_items set
APrice=p.PrezzoA,
BPrice=p.PrezzoB
from import.catalog_prices p where
catalog_items.ItemID=p.id;
select * from FT1IDX_trigger_create();
commit;
function are used since I've 2 triggers actually that I drop and
create.
Is there anything wrong in the above to make this update so slow on
a 2x Xeon 3.2GHz 4GbRAM and a RAID1 [sic] I know it is slow on write.
