Ok, I'm thoroughly confused.

Simple query:

tb3=> explain analyze select bin, alias as symbol from alias_hs a join
bin_hs using (id,source) where upper(alias) like 'PPARG';
                                                              QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
 Nested Loop  (cost=0.00..20.05 rows=1 width=19) (actual
time=0.114..0.118 rows=1 loops=1)
   ->  Index Scan using idx_alias_hs_alias on alias_hs a
(cost=0.00..9.02 rows=2 width=29) (actual time=0.073..0.074 rows=1
loops=1)
         Index Cond: (upper(alias) ~=~ 'PPARG'::text)
         Filter: (upper(alias) ~~ 'PPARG'::text)
   ->  Index Scan using idx_bin_hs_id_source on bin_hs  (cost=0.00..5.50
rows=1 width=28) (actual time=0.035..0.037 rows=1 loops=1)
         Index Cond: ((("outer".id)::text = (bin_hs.id)::text) AND
(("outer".source)::text = (bin_hs.source)::text))
 Total runtime: 0.167 ms
(7 rows)

A very similar query:

tb3=> explain analyze select bin,symbol from gene_hs g join bin_hs b on
(gene_id = id) where upper(symbol) like 'PPARG';
                                                              QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
 Nested Loop  (cost=0.00..20.03 rows=2 width=18) (actual
time=0.068..0.073 rows=1 loops=1)
   ->  Index Scan using idx_gene_hs_symbol on gene_hs g
(cost=0.00..9.01 rows=2 width=19) (actual time=0.031..0.032 rows=1
loops=1)
         Index Cond: (upper((symbol)::text) ~=~ 'PPARG'::character
varying)
         Filter: (upper((symbol)::text) ~~ 'PPARG'::text)
   ->  Index Scan using idx_bin_hs_id_source on bin_hs b
(cost=0.00..5.50 rows=1 width=19) (actual time=0.030..0.032 rows=1
loops=1)
         Index Cond: (("outer".gene_id)::text = (b.id)::text)
 Total runtime: 0.119 ms
(7 rows)

Now I create a union over the two of them:

 create view test as 
 select bin, alias as symbol from alias_hs a join bin_hs using
(id,source)
 union all
 select bin,symbol from gene_hs g join bin_hs b on (gene_id = id)

tb3=> explain analyze select * from test where upper(symbol) like
'PPARG';

(16 rows)

I can't figure out what is going on here.

Just in case here are the table structures:

tb3=> \d bin_hs
                   Table "core.bin_hs"
 Column  |         Type          |       Modifiers
---------+-----------------------+------------------------
 bin     | bigint                | not null
 source  | character varying(15) | not null
 id      | character varying(25) | not null
 current | boolean               | not null default false
Indexes:
    "idx_bin_hs_bin" btree (bin)
    "idx_bin_hs_id_source" btree (id, source)

tb3=> \d gene_hs
            Table "core.gene_hs"
 Column  |         Type          | Modifiers
---------+-----------------------+-----------
 gene_id | character varying(25) | not null
 symbol  | character varying(50) | not null
 name    | text                  |
Indexes:
    "gene_hs_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (gene_id)
    "idx_gene_hs_symbol" btree (upper(symbol::text) varchar_pattern_ops)

tb3=> \d alias_hs
           Table "core.alias_hs"
 Column |         Type          | Modifiers
--------+-----------------------+-----------
 id     | character varying(25) |
 source | character varying(15) |
 alias  | text                  |
Indexes:
    "idx_alias_hs_alias" btree (upper(alias) text_pattern_ops)
    "idx_alias_hs_id" btree (id)

Am I doing something really stupid?

Thanks,
