OK, forget my previous message. The problem is that you are doing a join
using @@ as the operator for the join condition, so the planner uses the
operator's join selectivity estimate. For @@ the tsmatchjoinsel function
simply returns 0.005.
Try doing:
explain analyze select count(*) from docmeta where docvector @@
plainto_tsquery('english', 'dyfdfdf');
It should help.
