I've got them. Here there are two gprof profiles:
http://lnfm1.sai.msu.ru/~math/public_misc/idxscan.gprof
http://lnfm1.sai.msu.ru/~math/public_misc/bitmap.gprof
(now as links, because the previous letter with those files as attachements
haven't passed on -hackers (due to size, I think))
bitmap.gprof is the profiling of the:
test=# explain analyze select * from q3c,q3c as q3cs where
(q3c.ipix>=q3cs.ipix-3 AND q3c.ipix<=q3cs.ipix+3) OR
(q3c.ipix>=q3cs.ipix-1000 AND q3c.ipix<=q3cs.ipix-993);
