With my workaround:
ts=# explain ANALYZE SELECT t1.sect_id, t1.start_time as period, sum (1) FROM 
enodeb_ncell_view t1, enodeb_ncell_view inc
WHERE ((t1.start_time >= '2017-04-30 00:00:00' AND t1.start_time < '2017-05-01 
00:00:00'))
AND ((inc.start_time >= '2017-04-30 00:00:00' AND inc.start_time < '2017-05-01 
00:00:00'))
AND t1.start_time = inc.start_time
AND ROW((t1.sect_id,t1.neigh_sect_id))= ROW((inc.neigh_sect_id,inc.sect_id))
GROUP BY t1.sect_id, period;
HashAggregate  (cost=63149.59..63371.74 rows=22215 width=10) (actual 
time=80092.652..80097.521 rows=22464 loops=1)
...

Without:
ts=# explain ANALYZE SELECT t1.sect_id, t1.start_time as period, sum (1) FROM 
enodeb_ncell_view t1, enodeb_ncell_view inc
WHERE ((t1.start_time >= '2017-04-30 00:00:00' AND t1.start_time < '2017-05-01 
00:00:00'))
AND ((inc.start_time >= '2017-04-30 00:00:00' AND inc.start_time < '2017-05-01 
00:00:00'))
AND t1.start_time = inc.start_time
AND t1.sect_id=inc.neigh_sect_id AND t1.neigh_sect_id=inc.sect_id
GROUP BY t1.sect_id, period;
GroupAggregate  (cost=57847.32..62265.54 rows=402 width=10) (actual 
time=694.186..952.744 rows=22464 loops=1)
...

This is a small inner subquery of a larger report - sum(1) is a placeholder for
other aggregates I've stripped out.

That's almost certainy what I meant.

   ->  Subquery Scan on data_rx_enb  (cost=3409585.76..3422861.74 rows=663799 
width=20) (actual time=510475.987..512069.064 rows=2169821 loops=1)
         ->  HashAggregate  (cost=3409585.76..3416223.75 rows=663799 width=16) 
(actual time=510475.984..511650.337 rows=2169821 loops=1)
               Group Key: eric_enodeb_cell_metrics_1.site_id, 
eric_enodeb_cell_metrics_1.start_time
