Hi, all. I found the problem - it was merely a poorly written query, which for some reason was less terrible on my laptop. Looking at http://explain.depesz.com/ helped me solve the issue. Performance is now back to normal.
It seems this was a classic case of pebcak. Thank you for your help and time!

Quite possibly your laptop is not actually a poorer machine for single uncomplicated queries. If it's cores are faster than the test servers, than your laptop would out-perform the server for such queries. Once you get other users starting to run queries as well, turning the load into a parallel load, the server will probably turn out faster again. -- If you can't see the forest for the trees, Cut the trees and you'll see there is no forest. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
