Kevin, momentarily, lets forget about the slow EXPLAIN ANALYZE part.
Also lets forget about the fact that the LINUX_TEST running 9.0.2 is a 
"slower/older" machine.
(its definetely "faster/newer" than FBSD_DEV)
The reason i got into trouble setting a new linux box (the 4th box in the test) 
just for this problem was to show that
the thing is not FreeBSD related.

We have clearly a query that runs fine in two boxes (FreeBSD - FBSD_DEV, Linux 
LINUX_PROD) running PostgreSQL 8.3.13
but runs a lot slower in two other boxes (FreeBSD - FBSD_TEST, Linux 
LINUX_TEST) running PostgreSQL 9.0.2

It is true that the thread might have to move over to pgsql-performance, if it 
there was no 8.3.13 involved,
in other words if we had only the old "EXISTS" vs "IN" situation.

Here we have smth which runs fast in 8.3.13 (over a variety of OS/HW) but slow 
in 9.0.2 (over a variety of OS/HW).

What i am asking is ways to understand what is going on, and what to expect 
when i will have to actually perform the production
upgrade to 9.0.2
