JSONs are not possible for 10_000_000 records

As hippo says, JSON is just a data format.

Let's give it a try, testing with some generated md5 values: 

testdb=# select count(*) from vkon_json;
  count   
----------
 10000000
(1 row)


testdb=# select * from vkon_json limit 3;
                     js                     | id 
--------------------------------------------+----
 {"f1": "c4ca4238a0b923820dcc509a6f75849b"} |  1
 {"f1": "c81e728d9d4c2f636f067f89cc14862c"} |  2
 {"f1": "eccbc87e4b5ce2fe28308fd9f2a7baf3"} |  3
(3 rows)


-- retrieve:

testdb=# select * from vkon_json
where js @> '{"f1": "d1ca3aaf52b41acd68ebb3bf69079bd1"}';
                     js                     |    id    
--------------------------------------------+----------
 {"f1": "d1ca3aaf52b41acd68ebb3bf69079bd1"} | 10000000
(1 row)

Less than half a millisecond. What do you think? Possible?

(I could have put everything into a 1-column, 1-row table but that just seems too dumb. Possible, though, and will perform just as fast)
