Hello,

If you leave enable_mergejoin to on, what happens if you run the explain
two time in a row ? Do you get the same planning time ?

At first look, this reminds me some catalog bloat issue. Can you provide
the result of these queries :
SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_table_size('pg_class')) AS size_pg_class;
SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_table_size('pg_attribute')) AS size_pg_attribute;

Thanks
