Likely a difference in encoding or collation. What does \l show you
(that's a lower case L btw)
smarlowe=> \l
List of databases
Name | Owner | Encoding | Collate | Ctype |
Access privileges
-----------+----------+----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------
postgres | smarlowe | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 |
smarlowe | smarlowe | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 |
UTF8 and en_US are much more expensive than SQL_ASCII and C would be
for text and such. Basically indexes either don't work or work as well
under en_US if you're comparing or sorting text.
