I wonder how many tuples are really in this table. Almost all of the 190ms is
spent in the two sequential scans of it. Which is an awful lot of time for a
32 tuple table.
You say it's "*very* busy" is it possible there are hundreds or thousands of
tuples in there that are uncommitted or committed after this query starts?
Alternatively, try a "vacuum full". If that helps then autovacuum is having
trouble keeping up with the rate of creation of dead tuples. You would have to
increase the FSM parameters.
Presumably autovacuum has warnings when it detects that scenario?
