Still the same :/

I raised the default_statistics_target to 600 (it was already 100). I
then restarted pg, ran analyze through all tables and yet there is not
effect.
This is the output for core_accessor:
INFO:  analyzing "public.core_accessor"
INFO:  "core_accessor": scanned 291230 of 291230 pages, containing
17144315 live rows and 0 dead rows; 300000 rows in sample, 17144315
estimated total rows

It thinks there are even less rows in the set:


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

time=683.907..683.910 rows=5 loops=1)
