I'm guessing an index isn't being used because your LANG is
something-UTF-8 and that got picked up when you recreated your database.
Try recreating the database with the C locale and see if that does it.

So, if I make a database with a UTF encoding of any kind, indexes are
not use?

If I wanted **ONE** database to be used with any langauge, I would use
C-LOCALE?
