The use case is nearly the same as the way to reproduce the problem described 
in the first letter. It’s an OLTP database with short mostly read-only queries 
(~ 6k rps). Every 10 minutes new data is inserted (~5-10% of rows in 
polygon_table) and old is deleted (~ 5-10% or rows in polygon_table). Insert 
and delete are made in different transactions. Until the vacuum after delete is 
finished the planning time is two orders of magnitude is higher than usually. 
If we use prepared statements the problem doesn’t reproduce since planning is 
not actually done.

We used to think that it’s actually not so (there was a problem in our test 
case), but we rechecked and it is, the planner doesn’t find min and max in 
unneeded for join indexes.
