Postgres currently does *not* optimize join order for explicit joins
(this is currently left as a cludge for users to hand-optimize query
plans).
To get the benefits form optimiser you have to rewrite
FROM TA JOIN TB ON TA.CB=TB.CB
to
FROM A,B
WHERE TA.CB=TB.CB

Could you try to explain it in other words (or give an example). I am
not native english speaker and I can read your text in at least 5
different ways ;(

It can be slower. It may also be a little faster in some very specific
cases ;)
