Analyzing after the first 50k or so is easy enough, then; thanks for
the suggestion.
Foreign keys are definitely indexed (actually referencing a set of
columns that the foreign table is UNIQUE on).
Any other suggestions? COPY times alone are pretty much quadrupling my
table-rebuild runtime, and I can interrupt the current rebuild to try
things pretty much at a whim (nothing else uses the DB while a rebuild
is happening), so I'm pretty much game to try any reasonable
suggestions anyone has.
