[PERFORM] Select running slow on Postgres

Hi
I have a select statement that runs on a partition having say couple
million rows.
The tabel has indexes on two colums. However the query uses the
non-indexed colums too in its where clause.
For example:
SELECT lane_id,measurement_start,
measurement_end,speed,volume,occupancy,quality,effective_date
FROM tss.lane_data_06_08
WHERE lane_id in(select lane_id from lane_info where inactive is null )
AND date_part('hour', measurement_start) between 5 and 23
AND date_part('day',measurement_start)=30
GROUP BY lane_id,measurement_start,measurement_end,speed,volume,occupancy,quality,effective_date
ORDER BY lane_id, measurement_start

out of this only lane_id and mesaurement_start are indexed. This query
will return around 10,000 rows. But it seems to be taking a long time
to execute which doesnt make sense for a select statement. It doesnt
make any sense to create index for every field we are gonna use in tne
where clause.
Isnt there any way we can improve the performance?
