So you _didn't_ vacuum analyze. You need one right at this point, or the
database is optimizing your queries using statistical data that is no
longer accurate (If I understand correctly, the statistics describe an
empty database - I need to read up on this topic sometime, I use it a
lot...).

I'm rather certain creating a tablespace on that partition would be
faster than a symlink, although I suppose the filesystem cache will help
a bit.
