   Hi. I notice that when I do a WHERE x, Postgres uses an index, and
   when I do WHERE y, it does so as well, but when I do WHERE x OR y,
   it doesn't. Why is this so?

It's not clever enough.

Of course it is.

For simple cases



I'm running 8.3.7.

create table t1(id int primary key);
insert into t1(id) select a from generate_series(1, 500000) as s(a);
analyze t1;

explain analyze select * from t1 where
id < 10000

"Index Scan using t1_pkey on t1  (cost=0.00..322.51 rows=9612 width=4) (actual time=0.030..3.700 rows=9999 loops=1)"
"  Index Cond: (id < 10000)"
"Total runtime: 4.835 ms"

explain analyze select * from t1 where
id in (select (random() * 500000)::int4 from generate_series(0,10))

or
id < 10000

"              ->  Index Scan using t1_pkey on t1  (cost=0.00..322.51 rows=9612 width=4) (actual time=0.023..4.075 rows=9999 loops=1)"
"                    Index Cond: (id < 10000)"
"Total runtime: 112.694 ms"

So, if it founds out anything complex, it sadly falls back to Sequence scan.
