You can do something like:
set enable_seqscan=off;
explain select yourqueryhere;
and see if the plan it comes up with is any better. Use explain
analyze to see how long it really takes. Basically if the index isn't
selective enough a seq scan will be a win, especially in pgsql where
it has to hit the table anyway, whether it uses the index or not.
