Sorry but this does not seem to improve performance, it takes even more
time, have a look at these data:

explain analyze SELECT * FROM ViewHttp
WHERE (vchost || txcontenttype) ilike '%www.%html%'
ORDER BY iDStart DESC, iSensorID DESC, iForensicID DESC, iSubID DESC
OFFSET 0 LIMIT 201


"Limit  (cost=22740.77..22741.28 rows=201 width=1250) (actual
time=14234.000..14234.000 rows=201 loops=1)"
"  ->  Sort  (cost=22740.77..22741.89 rows=447 width=1250) (actual
time=14234.000..14234.000 rows=201 loops=1)"
"        Sort Key: detail0009.idstart, detail0009.isensorid,
detail0009.iforensicid, detail0009.isubid"
"        ->  Hash Join  (cost=13.13..22721.10 rows=447 width=1250)
(actual time=469.000..12140.000 rows=54035 loops=1)"
"              Hash Cond: ("outer".isensorid = "inner".isensorid)"
"              ->  Nested Loop  (cost=0.00..22701.27 rows=447
width=1165) (actual time=469.000..11428.000 rows=54035 loops=1)"
"                    ->  Seq Scan on detail0009  (cost=0.00..20763.77
rows=26 width=1005) (actual time=453.000..6345.000 rows=54064 loops=1)"
"                          Filter: (((vchost)::text || txcontenttype)
~~* '%www.%html%'::text)"
"                    ->  Index Scan using connections_pkey on
connections  (cost=0.00..74.25 rows=18 width=168) (actual
time=0.073..0.077 rows=1 loops=54064)"
"                          Index Cond: (("outer".isensorid =
connections.isensorid) AND ("outer".iforensicid = connections.iforensicid))"
"              ->  Hash  (cost=12.50..12.50 rows=250 width=101) (actual
time=0.000..0.000 rows=0 loops=1)"
"                    ->  Seq Scan on sensors  (cost=0.00..12.50 rows=250
width=101) (actual time=0.000..0.000 rows=1 loops=1)"
"Total runtime: 14234.000 ms"


Thanks for your help anyway...
