Re: totally different plan when using partitions

Query:
set enable_mergejoin=off;set enable_hashjoin=off;

Explain analyze on my sistem ("PostgreSQL 8.4.0 on sparc-sun-solaris2.10, compiled by cc: Sun C 5.9 SunOS_sparc Patch 124867-02 2007/11/27, 64-bit"):

interesting bit (if I got it right):

-> Nested Loop (cost=0.0..3139.65 rows=6531 width=36) (actual time=0.141..13.459 rows=3692 loops=1)
Join Filter: ((data1.time >= cell_bsc.starttime) AND (data1.time <= cell_bsc.endtime) AND (cell_bsc.nome1 = data1.ne_id))
-> Seq Scan on cell_bsc_60_0610 cell_bsc (cost=0.0..99.39 rows=285 width=20) (actual time=0.033..1.740 rows=285 loops=1)
Filter: (nome2 = 2)
-> Append (cost=0.0..10.6 rows=4 width=16) (actual time=0.012..0.027 rows=13 loops=285)

285*4 should give 1140 max, not 6531: is this different enough?

If it is, I have a 585K dump file that should recreate the problem.
