Nevertheless in the investigations was achieved some progress (7.4 sec vs 19.6

But using IOS scan

"IOS scan" ?

Do you mean some kind of I/O monitoring tool?

you can see that there is an abnormal cost calculations it make me suspicious  
of little bugs.

Abnormal how?

The cost estimates aren't times, I/Os, or anything you know, they're a purely relative figure for comparing plan costs.

hashes=#  set enable_seqscan = off;
SET

What's your seq_page_cost and random_page_cost?


hashes=# explain analyse verbose select name, count(name) as cnt from  
hashcheck group by name order by name desc;

          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you don't mind the increased cost of insert/update/delete try:

    CREATE INDEX hashcheck_name_rev_idx
    ON public.hashcheck (name DESC);

ie create the index in descending order.
