Hmm, how about how many pages are in the various tables, (do a
vacuum verbose <table> for the various tables and what is sort_mem
set to? It's picking the index scan to get the tables in sorted
order, but I wonder if that's really the best plan given it's getting
a large portion of the tables.
Hmm, what does it do if you set enable_indexscan=off; ?
