This doesn't sound like a bug; it sounds like you haven't tuned your
server.
 
For starters, you should check out this page:
 
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server
 
As a quick try, you could issue these statements on the connection
right before one of the problem queries:
 
set effective_cache_size = '7GB';
  -- use 1 or 2 GB less than RAM on the machine
set random_page_cost = 2;
-- now try your query
 
If, after reading the above-cited page and tuning your server you
still have performance problems, pick one query to work on first,
and follow the step outlined here:
 
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/SlowQueryQuestions
 
Use the pgsql-performance list for performance issues, not the bugs
list.  You'll find more people who will be able to help you with
performance issues there.
