I have problems with queries over tsearch index.
I have a table of books, with 1200000 registers. I have created an GIST
index over the title and subtitle,
CREATE INDEX "idxts2_titsub_idx" ON "public"."libros" USING gist
("idxts2_titsub");
My problems started when i execute my queries.
For example, i execute a simple query like this one:
explain analyze
SELECT isbn, titulo
FROM libros
WHERE idxts2_titsub @@ to_tsquery('default_spanish',
to_ascii('sevilla'))
ORDER BY titulo
LIMIT 10;
This query take more than 10 secods, and i think this is too much for such
an easy query.
Every night, i execute a VACUUM ANALYZE over my data base.
The query plan of this query, is the next one:

Index Cond: (idxts2_titsub @@ '''sevilla'''::tsquery)
Total runtime: 17062.665 ms
I have no idea what is happening. Why the Bitmap Index Scan and the Bitmap
Heap Scan cost so much time?
I have a 2GB RAM memory Server.
Thanks every body for your healp and sorry for my English
