I've not looked at the rest of your problem in detail, but using the 
default configuration values is certainly not going to help things. In 
particular effective_cache is supposed to tell PG how much memory your 
OS is using to cache data.

Read this through and make sure your configuration settings are sane, 
then it might be worthwhile looking in detail at this particular query.
