Well I did not mentioned that it all runs on Virtual Machine so thats why
2.5GB. I could not assigned more.
Today I have tried the VM machine on PC where I assigned 9GB of memory to
this VM. There I set the shared_buffers on 900MB, but there was not any
improvement.

I use 9.0 and I also tried Vacuum FULL, but it did not help.
It is very strange. I have tried everythink, but nothing helped :-(
Any other ideas?
