Hrm. I get a seq scan for that query:

create index on try(upper_inf(irange));
explain select * from try where upper_inf(irange);
                        QUERY PLAN                         
-----------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on try  (cost=0.00..1887.00 rows=33333 width=68)
   Filter: upper_inf(irange)

True also if I just select the irange. Is the filter the issue, here?

Best,

David
