      When using $all with $elemMatch criteria, the query uses wider bounds than what it should have used (v2.4 behaves correctly in selecting narrow bounds). Following are steps indicates the wider bounds being queried on the array field "bc":

      db.x.drop();
      db.x.ensureIndex({a: 1, "dims.b": 1, "dims.c": 1});
      db.x.insert({a: 1, bc: [{b: "abc", c: "xyz"}, {b: "gsh", c: "ysh"]});
      db.x.find({
              "a" : 1,
              "bc" : {
                      "$all" : [
                              {
                                      "$elemMatch" : {
                                              "b" : "pl",
                                              "c" : "tgit"
                                      }
                              },
                              {
                                      "$elemMatch" : {
                                              "b" : "xy",
                                              "c" : "ak"
                                              }
                               }
                      ]
              }
      }).explain();
      

      Explain with $all:
