Simple database query is taking over 10 mins even with a suitable index

      We have a collection (called childData) with the following indexes:

      m_childDataCollection.CreateIndex(IndexKeys.Ascending(MongoChildData.ItemIdProperty).Ascending(MongoChildData.ChildIdProperty));
      m_childDataCollection.CreateIndex(IndexKeys.Ascending(MongoChildData.RedundantTimeProperty));
      

      This query runs very fast (less than a second) and returns 59631 :

      db.childdata.find(\{ ItemId: ObjectId('596f322ba28f4b1240f1c2e9') }).count()
      

      This query takes around 15 minutes:

      db.childdata.find(\{ ItemId: ObjectId('596f322ba28f4b1240f1c2e9') }, \{ItemId : 1, ChId : 1}).toArray()
      

      We are failing to understand why this second query takes so long even though it is using the index?

      Please note that I have also rebuilt these indexes completely. It took over 3 days to do this!

      Thanks
      Ian
