What OS/version is it ?

What GUCs have you changed ?

Is it a new issue ?

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Slow_Query_Questions

Operating system+version
What OS / version ? At least for linux, you can get the distribution by running: tail /etc/*release

GUC Settings
What database configuration settings have you changed? What are their values? (These are things like "shared_buffers", "work_mem", "enable_seq_scan", "effective_io_concurrency", "effective_cache_size", etc). See Server Configuration for a useful query that will show all of your non-default database settings, in an easier to read format than posting pieces of your postgresql.conf file.
