Each node has a geometry column called geom and a hstore column

keys in the tags column. To do that I use the following query:
SELECT id, tags
FROM nodes
WHERE ST_DWithin(nodes.geom, ST_MakeLine('{$geom1}', '{$geom2}'), 0.001)
AND tags ? '{$type}';
CREATE INDEX nodes_tags_idx ON nodes USING GIN(tags);
After creating the index I searched again for nodes using the same first
query but there is no change in performance.
How can I properly use GIN and GIST to index tags column so I can faster
search for nodes that have a certain key in tags column?
Your index definition looks OK. Try showing the output of EXPLAIN
ANALYSE for your query - that way we'll see if the index is being used.
You can always paste explain output to: http://explain.depesz.com/ if
it's too long for the email.
