The estimated number of rows here (4335) is *way* off (173998 actually). If
you only had 4335 rows, then this might be a more sensible plan.
First step is to run:
VACUUM ANALYSE program;
Then, check the definition of your function fn_mri_id_no_program() and make
sure it is marked immutable/stable (depending on what it does) and that it's
returning a varchar.
