Explain looks good.

Have you done anything to tune postgresql to use more memory or are you using the default parameters that came with the install. postgresql by default is configured to use minimal memory. If its the default, then I would google for "tuning postgresql" and look at shared_buffers specifically, there are probably others that can be opened up also but it really depends on the amount of memory you have, the OS, what other applications are running and using memory concurrently, etc.

The explain query for your query is:

"Index Scan using loc_idx on metadata cat  (cost=0.00..1050.88 rows=253
width=845)"

SELECT *
FROM portal.catalog as cat
WHERE ST_Contains(cat.location,'SRID=4326;POINT(70.9433962
41.5384615)'::geometry) OR
        ST_Contains(cat.location,'SRID=4326;POINT(71.9433962
