Can you post a self-contained example of this behavior? My gut reaction
is that the changes for the partitioning feature broke some optimization
that used to work ... but it could easily be something else, too. Hard
to say with nothing concrete to look at.

If you'd reported this in suitable detail awhile ago, we might have been
able to fix it for 10.2. At this point, with barely 30 hours remaining
before the planned release wrap, it's unlikely that anything but the most
trivial fixes could get done in time.
