It's slow because the planner is choosing a nestloop join on the
strength of its estimate that there's only a half dozen rows to be
joined.  You need to figure out why those rowcount estimates are so bad.
I suspect that you've shot yourself in the foot by raising
autovacuum_analyze_threshold so high --- most likely, none of those
tables have ever gotten analyzed.  And what's with the high
autovacuum_naptime setting?  You might need to increase
default_statistics_target too, but first see if a manual ANALYZE makes
things better.
