One more (untested) possibility would be to list partition the table, in
order to segregate out all of the 'Y' values.  This *should* allow the
optimizer to employ partition pruning, and simply exclude the undesirable
subset of data.

In practice, I suspect that your case would require that row migration be
enabled as well.  This would certainly add a bit of overhead, which may or
may not be noticeable to the users.
