How are you generating the explain? My bet is that you're just
substituting a literal in the architecture condition, but if the driver
is smart then maybe it's preparating the query beforehand. You'll get a
different plan in that case. Try something like this:
prepare foo(smallint) as ...
where libinstance.architecture = $1
...
explain analyze execute foo(1);
If the plan you get from that is bad (and it often is), you should look
at avoiding a query prepare.
