Just a small correction to get a good benchmark

The ~500 sec analyze time was on a test VM running on a i5 2.4 Ghz with 2
dedicate cores, 4 GB of RAM and stored on a notebook HDD. The partitioned
data was about 80GB.

On our production environment (described by Pavan) it took ~90 second for
~55GB of data in 8 child/partition tables (we stopped the import of
partitioned data when we discovered this issue - we COPYed and TRUNCATEd
partitions to speed up upgrade procedure from 8.4 to 9.1 by
pg_dump/pg_restore).
