You're right it was sequential_page_cost = 1 because it's really irrelevant 
what I do here:
set random_page_cost=2;
set seq_page_cost=5;
'2012-05-01' AND '2012-08-30' -> NESTEDLOOP
'2012-04-01' AND '2012-08-30' -> SEQSCAN

a) there will be a point, where things will go bad 
 this is like patching up a roof 'till you find the next hole instead of making 
it right at the beginning of construction process
b) they high seq costs might be true for that table (partition at 40gb), but 
not for the rest of the database 
 Seqscan-Costs per table would be great.

Regards,

Andy
