Some questions:
Is autovacuum running? This is the most likely suspect. If not, things
will bloat and you won't be getting appropriate "analyze" runs. Speaking
of which, what happens if you just run "analyze"?
And as long as you are dumping and reloading anyway, how about version
upgrading for bug reduction, performance improvement, and cool new features.
Cheers,
Steve
