We know that PostgreSQL 7.5 will perform much better than 7.4 did due to
the efforts of OSDN and Tom.

I've enquired as to whether they ran ANALYZE after the data load. They
don't explicitly mention it, and given the mention it took 2.5days to
load 1GB of data, they're not regular PostgreSQL users.
