Granted if a unique index is required we can use a unique index as well. My
only point was adding a secondary partial index was probably not the way to
go and that adding a generic index on barcode would service the user better.

But nobody suggested adding a secondary partial index.  I made
reference to the Pg documentation concerning partial indexes simply to
point to a source of more information about the topic being discussed.


You are right. I just re-read your message. I apologize, I misread it. I still think that my performance suggests are spot on however.

Pointing to additional reading material is a habit I find hard to
shake after having consorted with librarians for so long. ;)

Nothing wrong with that. Having documentation back you up is always good.
