No, not directly, but you could look at EXPLAIN ANALYZE to see which

Good to know, but even deleting one day of data (90,000 rows using an index 
scan on the date field) takes forever.
So delete a relatively small number of rows, and do it with
EXPLAIN *ANALYZE*.  Without ANALYZE, you aren't getting any
relevant data.

Doing that when trying to delete one minute of data is exactly what was needed.  99.999% of the time was spent on a checking another table which didn't have a supporting index.

Adding that index makes things run as expected.
