What's the benefit of a multi-column GIN index over multiple
single-column GIN indexes?

Page 12 from presentation on PgCon (http://www.sigaev.ru/gin/fastinsert_and_multicolumn_GIN.pdf):

Multicolumn index vs.  2 single column indexes

Size:    539 Mb        538 Mb
Speed:   *1.885* ms    4.994 ms
Index:   ~340 s        ~200 s
Insert:  72 s/10000    66 s/10000

Well, another reason is a index feature-completeness
