It doesn't -- at least not directly.  (There could be very subtle
effects when Postgres does a sequential scan over a large relation
thus pushing everything else out of the cache, where an index scan
would have read only a small number of pages.  Or when a large index
scan turns your machine from CPU bound to I/O bound.)
