If this is a linux system, could you give us the output of the 'free' command?

Postgresql might be choosing a bad plan because your effective_cache_size is
way off (it's the default now right?). Also, what was the block read/write
yes it's set to the default.
speed of the SAN from your bonnie tests? Probably want to tune
random_page_cost as well if it's also at the default.

effective_cache_size is the default.
