You need to be careful if performance is an issue. Because PGSQL doesn't
support clustered indexes/index organized tables, you can get into a
situation where you end up tablescanning instead of using the index to
access the particular set of data you want.
If you look in the performance archives for April, you'll see several
messages about this.
