Basically, run something like:
-- 1000 is just an arbitrary choice, but we can lower it later if this
-- works.
ALTER TABLE my.Large ALTER COLUMN small_id SET STATISTICS 1000;
ANALYZE my.Large;
This increases the target for just the column in question which means it
should have a better idea of the distribution and may make it make a
better guess if you've got a somewhat uneven distribution.
