Explain Analyze:


  Hash Join  (cost=154.46..691776.11 rows=10059626 width=100) (actual 
time=5.191..37551.360 rows=10063432 loops=1)
    Hash Cond: (a.order_id = o.order_id)
    ->  Seq Scan on cust_acct a  (cost=0.00..540727.26 rows=10059626 
width=92) (actual time=0.022..18987.095 rows=10063432 loops=1)
    ->  Hash  (cost=124.76..124.76 rows=2376 width=12) (actual 
time=5.135..5.135 rows=2534 loops=1)
          ->  Seq Scan on cust_orders o  (cost=0.00..124.76 rows=2376 
width=12) (actual time=0.011..2.843 rows=2534 loops=1)
