With index scan cost being more than 25 * seq scan cost, I guess that
- all other things held equal - even random_page_cost = 1 wouldn't
help.
Andre might also want to experiment with effective_cache_size and with
ALTER TABLE ... SET STATISTICS.
Or there's something wrong with correlation?
Andre, what hardware is this running on? What are the values of
shared_buffers, random_page_cost, effective_cache_size, ... ? Could
you show us the result of
SELECT * FROM pg_stats
WHERE tablename = "tbl_traffic" AND attname = "time_stamp";
