What versions are both servers? I'd guess that the webhost is using
7.3 or earlier and you're using 7.4 or later. I created a table
like yours, populated it with test data, and ran your query on
several versions of PostgreSQL. I saw the same horrible plan on
7.3 and the same good plan on later versions. The 7.4 Release Notes
do mention improvements in query planning; apparently one of those
improvements is making the difference.
