For the record, if you follow the instructions for submitting slow query
questions, we'd likely have spotted it very quickly if you hadn't spotted it
yourself while doing the cut and paste.  The instructions ask for table
definitions, so you'd likely have noticed the missing index when you copied
those into your email.  The link (
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/SlowQueryQuestions ) is right there on the
mailing list page at postgresql.org.  It's always a toss-up whether to
attempt to answer a question like yours or just respond with a link to that
page when the relevant info is missing ;-)
