You really, really should update to something newer than 7.0.
The list of bugs we've fixed since then would make your blood run cold.

Is that query using an index?  (Try EXPLAINing the query to find out.)
If so, I'd suggest dropping and recreating that index.  7.0 is far
enough back that I'm not sure REINDEX works real well in it, if it
has it at all.
