Can you run the EXPLAIN once more with EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS,
TIMING OFF). Given the number of rows processed by the query, the
detailed per node timing overhead might be a considerable factor here.
What happened to the "WHERE T.creation_date=$SOME_DATE" part of the
query. These examples go through the whole table. The plans shown are
about as fast as it gets. Summarizing 5GB of data will never be fast.
If you need that information quickly, you'll need to actively maintain
the aggregate values via triggers.
