The table is partitioned on registration_id.

CREATE TABLE emailsubscription.reg_email_subscriptions_p00

(

  CONSTRAINT reg_email_subscriptions_p00_pkey PRIMARY KEY (registration_id, 
subscription_id),

  CONSTRAINT reg_email_subscriptions_p00_registration_id_check CHECK 
((abs(registration_id) % 8::bigint) = 0)

)

INHERITS (emailsubscription.reg_email_subscriptions)

WITH (

  OIDS=FALSE

);





Update:

We changed the query from

SELECT DISTINCT it.recipient_id

FROM  iru.iru_tags it

WHERE it.recipient_id BETWEEN 758587587 and 968696896

AND   it.status = 0

AND   it.last_update_date >= date_trunc('day', now() - interval '90 days')

AND EXISTS (SELECT DISTINCT res.registration_id

                    FROM emailsubscription.reg_email_subscriptions res

                    WHERE res.registration_id = it.recipient_id

                    AND  res.subscription_id = 200400);



to:

SELECT DISTINCT it.recipient_id

FROM   iru.iru_tags it

where   it.STATUS = 0

AND       it.last_update_date >= date_trunc('day', now() - interval '90 days')

AND       EXISTS   (SELECT res.registration_id

                                FROM   
emailsubscription.reg_email_subscriptions res

                                WHERE res.registration_id = it.recipient_id

                                and        res.registration_id BETWEEN 
8706059856 AND 8706077435

                                AND       res.subscription_id = 200400);



And it slightly improved the performance.

I am not sure if there was a corruption in the first place. Since we suddenly 
started having problem with a query that was running much faster before, we 
were wondering if there was a corruption. But, vacuum did not indicate that we 
had one. Details on the maintenance we did the night before is in the original 
post.



Thank You for your time
