I need to gather all segments whose probandset is within in a specified people.

​SELECT s.* implies semi-joins - so lets see how that would work.

SELECT vals.* 

FROM ( VALUES (2),(4) ) vals (v)

WHERE EXISTS (

// 2

I never understood the love for UUID keys, If he changes UUID for int, install intarray and create this index :
CREATE INDEX probandset_probands_gistsmall ON probandset USING gin (probands gin__int_ops);
then he'll be able to do
.... WHERE .... intset(people_member.personid) ~ probandset.probands ...
That would boost performance quite a lot. (in my tests 100-fold)
