You are selecting and returning 2 million records...how fast do you want
this to run? For some reason I read 57 seconds initially - I guess 57
minutes is a bit much...but the most obvious solution is RAM.

Might want to include buffers output in the explain as well but:

I'm doubting the contents of your result fit into the server memory so your
disk is involved which will severely slow down processing.

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable and experience will chime in to help
you.
