Sure, of course. The goal was more exercising the hstore type, which I have
never used before, and to find a good index strategy.

Right, I know. I'm indeed surprised how fast it already is to scan the whole
table, in particular in the JSONB and HSTORE cases, where I didn't create an
index on the field!

Just for fun, I will try to learn about full text searches, another thing I
never used on PG, and if it works against an HSTORE field... I don't know yet
if I will need that machinery (current DB is still well under the million
records) though.

Thank you,
ciao, lele.
