In December I had tried this; it caused a tremendous slowdown in our system. 
I have avoided it since then.

Do you expect pg_trgm to work with phrases? OI had read a post earlier from 
an earlier support question that suggested that it I SHOULD expect 
performance to degrade and that pg_trgrm was oriented towards word mathcing, 
not phrase matching.
