In December I had tried this; it caused a tremendous slowdown in our system. I have avoided it since then.

Do you expect pg_trgm to work with phrases? OI had read a post earlier from an earlier support question that suggested that it I SHOULD expect performance to degrade and that pg_trgrm was oriented towards word mathcing, not phrase matching.

I'm a bit unsure from reading your mail -- have you tried pg_trgm with a GiST
index?

      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
