An index scan that picks up 1972 rows is taking 5 seconds? I think
there must be something wrong with this index. Is it possible that
since you apparently weren't analyzing this database, that maybe you
didn't vacuum it either? If so, you should probably do a VACUUM FULL
on your database and then a database-wide REINDEX, but at a minimum
you should try reindexing this particular index.
