Note that "vacuum full" is not recommended practice in most situations. Among the downsides, it removes the visibility map, which is necessary to allow index-only scans. Plain vacuum should always be used except for certain dire situations. Before proceeding further, please perform a plain vacuum on the DB. After that, check if there are still problems with your queries. > Also, adding "materialized" to both "withcwrack" and "withcwrack0" CTEs > gets the result in acceptable timings (a few seconds).

Yes, meaning 11 and earlier don't recognize that keyword keyword. > Is there anything I can do to prevent that kind of behaviour ?

It would be surely be useful for some users to have a way to slowly migrate query plans to new planner versions, but that's not how it works today.
