When was the last time you vacuum analyzed the database?

Also, you don't even provide the query.  I can't imagine how you'd expect
anyone to help you.  If vacuum analyze doesn't fix the problem, please
provide the query, explain output of the query, and the schema of any
tables involved, including information on indexes.
