Yes, I think it is the cache.
I am running the first and the second query on my test server and no
one is working on it at this time.
My general problem is tath the query without and n.num like '191%'
is much faster.
I detect the same also with many other field on the n-table.

I think planer expect to find all the records in cache but it is not there.
Can I tune some parameters in postgres.conf (effective_cache_size for
example) ?
