QUERY PLAN
Try
SELECT * FROM eventtable where timestamp BETWEEN (CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL '10 minutes') AND CURRENT_TIMESTAMP;
This should will use a range off valid times. What your query is doing is looking for 10 minutes ago to an infinate future. Statically speaking that should encompass most of the table because you have an infinate range. No index will be used. If you assign a range the planner can fiqure out what you are looking for.
