There is about 500,000 rows and about 500 new rows each business day.
About 96% of rows meet given conditions, that is, count shoud be about 480,000.
When such a large percentage of the rows match, a sequential scan is
indeed a better plan than an index scan. Sequential access is much
faster than random access.
