Hello, i have a problem with relatively easy query.
EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT content.* FROM content JOIN blog ON blog.id = content.blog_id JOIN community_prop ON blog.id = community_prop.blog_id JOIN community ON community.id = community_prop.id WHERE community.id IN (33, 55, 61, 1741, 75, 90, 106, 180, 228, 232, 256, 310, 388, 404, 504, 534, 536, 666, 700, 768, 824, 832, 855, 873, 898, 962, 1003, 1008, 1027, 1051, 1201, 1258, 1269, 1339, 1355, 1360, 1383, 1390, 1430, 1505, 1506, 1530, 1566, 1578, 1616, 1678, 1701, 1713, 1723, 1821, 1842, 1880, 1882, 1894, 1973, 2039, 2069, 2106, 2130, 2204, 2226, 2236, 2238, 2263, 2272, 2310, 2317, 2327, 2353, 2360, 2401, 2402, 2409, 2419, 2425, 2426, 2438, 2440, 2452, 2467, 2494, 2514, 2559, 2581, 2653, 2677, 2679, 2683, 2686, 2694, 2729, 2732, 2739, 2779, 2785, 2795, 2821, 2831, 2839, 2862, 2864, 2866, 2882, 2890, 2905, 2947, 2962, 2964, 2978, 2981, 3006, 3016, 3037, 3039, 3055, 3060, 3076, 3112, 3124, 3135, 3138, 3186, 3213, 3222, 3225, 3269, 3273, 3288, 3291, 3329, 3363, 3375, 3376, 3397, 3415, 3491, 3500, 2296, 3547, 129, 1039, 8, 1053, 1441, 2372, 1974, 289, 2449, 2747, 2075, 57, 3550, 3069, 89, 1603, 1570, 54, 152, 1035, 1456, 506, 1387, 43, 1805, 1851, 1843, 2587, 1908, 1790, 2630, 901, 13, 529, 705, 81, 2668, 1086, 603, 1986, 2516, 2969, 2671, 568, 4636, 1115, 864, 381, 4516, 2608, 677, 88, 1825, 3220, 3284, 947, 1190, 2233, 4489, 3320, 2957, 4146, 1841, 25, 643, 4352, 14, 4261, 3876, 1311, 1342, 4057, 3974) ORDER BY content.time_create DESC LIMIT 10; http://explain.depesz.com/s/ccE As you can see, planner estimates 115 rows, but there are 259554 of them.

Tried setting n_distinct on content(blog_id) manually to different values from 10000 to 200000 (exact distinct is 90k, vacuum sets it to 76k) - did not change the estimate result set, only estimated index lookup. Don't now what to do with this. Ready to provide any additional information. Thank you for your time.
