Hm, I wonder what pg_upgrade left relpages/reltuples set to ...

VACUUM is deciding that the table is all-visible and it need not scan
any of it ...

... and then ANALYZE is scanning only 30000 of 6451184 pages, so even
though it knows the correct tuple density in those pages, it's not
licensed to change the reltuples total very much. If reltuples is way
off base to start with, then it will take a lot of ANALYZE cycles to
converge on a saner value. However, this doesn't leave us much closer
to understanding why it's off base to start with.
