30 ms is also amazingly slow for so few records and so little data.
- please provide results of "EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT id FROM table"
- huge bloat (table never vacuumed ?) => VACUUM VERBOSE
- bad network cable, network interface reverting to 10 Mbps, badly
configured network, etc ? (test it and test ping to server, throughput,
etc)
- server overloaded (swapping, etc) ? (vmstat, iostat, top, etc)
