Would CLUSTER / REINDEX still have an effect if our queries were done
via sequential scan?
SELECTS don't write to the database, so they have no effect at all on
vacuuming/analyzing. You only need to worry about that with writes.
This is a old database (as in built by me when i
was just starting to learn unix / postgres) so the database design is
pretty horrible (little normalisation, no indexes).
No indexes? Bloody hell :D
Use EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT ... ; on all of your selects to see where
they are slow and where you can add indexes...
