Sorry to say that I have not followed the entire thread neither read the
entire email I'm replying to, but I have a quick hint on this one (ref my
earlier thread about timestamp indices) - the postgresql planner will
generally behave smarter when using a fixed timestamp (typically generated
by the app server) than logics based on now().

One of my colleagues also claimed that he found the usage of
localtimestamp faster than now().
