Looks like a nice approach, but it did no effect to the query time. The plan
for this approach:
Sort (cost=104928.07..104928.86 rows=317 width=41) (actual
time=5435.210..5435.236 rows=448 loops=1)
Sort Key: r.created
Sort Method: quicksort Memory: 60kB
-> Nested Loop (cost=1.31..104914.90 rows=317 width=41) (actual
time=57.230..5434.930 rows=448 loops=1)
Join Filter: (d.rid = a.rid)
-> Nested Loop (cost=0.87..93919.79 rows=13870 width=28) (actual
time=0.569..2240.955 rows=14200 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using report_drugs_drug_idx on report_drugs d
(cost=0.44..496.92 rows=13870 width=8) (actual time=0.565..4.678 rows=14200
loops=1)
Index Cond: (drug = ANY
('{359,360,361,362,363}'::integer[]))
-> Index Scan using reports_id_key on reports r
(cost=0.43..6.73 rows=1 width=20) (actual time=0.157..0.157 rows=1 loops=14200)
Index Cond: (id = d.rid)
-> Index Scan using report_adverses_rid_idx on report_adverses a
(cost=0.44..0.78 rows=1 width=21) (actual time=0.224..0.225 rows=0 loops=14200)
Index Cond: (rid = r.id)
Filter: (adverse = ANY ('{"back pain - nonspecific","nonspecific
back
pain","back pain"}'::text[]))
Rows Removed by Filter: 5
Planning time: 18.512 ms
Execution time: 5435.293 ms

Correct. I have tried those as well, but the planner seems to take the exact
same path and as a result the query time is unchanged.
