When I implemented this in 9a4c24c, there were not many rows in
entity_documentproperties in the database here. Now that there are,
computing the document_document -> entity_documentproperties ->
entity_entity join and then filtering is really, really slow. Postgres
seems to materialize the whole join and then scan it.
If we get a set of matching document IDs for the entity query in a
subquery, and then just filter with IN on that, things are much faster:
scan entity_entity; in a nested loop, get the document_ids via
entity_documentproperties; hash this set; and then scan
document_document.
Searching for a single character, this brings the query from ~1.1s to
~400ms. Searching for a full word, ~800ms to 120ms
This condition is getting really ugly -- I am sorry!
