When I decrease random page cost, then the cost of bitmapscan was decreased
too

https://explain.depesz.com/s/7CAJ .. random page cost 2
https://explain.depesz.com/s/iEBW .. random page cost 2, bitmapscan off
https://explain.depesz.com/s/W4zw .. random page cost 2
https://explain.depesz.com/s/Gar .. random page cost 1, bitmapscan off

I played with other costs, but without any success, the cost of bitmapscan
is significantly cheaper then index scan.

Pavel
