Oh, to followup on my previously sent post, make sure you've got effective_cache_size set right BEFORE you go trying to set random_page_cost, and you might wanna run a select * from table to load the table into kernel buffer cache before testing, then also test it with the cache cleared out (select * from a_different_really_huge_table will usually do that.)
