I'm using a mailing list archive (the benchmark is essentially a simple
search engine on top of the archive, implemented using built-in
full-text). So I think this is a quite 'real' dataset, not something
synthetic.
The queries are generated, of course, but I strived to make them as real
as possible.
Sure, this is not a hstore-centric benchmark, but the thread is about GIN
indexes, so I think it's fair.

Yes, that's something we could/should test, probably. Sadly I don't have a
dataset or a complete real-world test case at hand. Any ideas?
I certainly agree that it'd be very sad to lose the performance gain for
hstore/json. OTOH my fear is that to achieve that gain, we'll noticeably
slow down other important use cases (e.g. full-text search), which is one
of the reasons why I was doing the tests.
