Geez Tom, cut me some slack... no one even bothered to respond that that post
with a "hey we can't tell cause we need more information"...

not that it matters because here is where I reposted the problem with more
information
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2006-01/msg00248.php
where you'll note that Josh agreed with my thinking that there was an issue
with the planner and he specifically asked for comments from you.

And here is where I reposted the problem to -bugs
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2006-01/msg00134.php where I make
note of discussing this with several other people, got Bruce to hazard a
guess which was debunked, and where I noted to Bruce about 10 days later that
there had been no further action and no one had asked for the _sample
database_ I was able to put together.
