Please don't do that, at least not that way. These explain outputs have
been line-wrapped to the point of utter unreadability.
The main problem looks to me that you're trying to do a 25-way join.
You'll want to increase join_collapse_limit and maybe fool with the
geqo parameters. I fear you won't get a plan in a sane amount of time
if you try to do the full query as a single exhaustive search. You
can either raise join_collapse_limit all the way and trust geqo to
find a decent plan repeatably (not a real safe assumption unfortunately)
or raise both join_collapse_limit and geqo_threshold to some
intermediate level and hope that a slightly wider partial plan search
will find the plan you need.
It's also possible that you're just stuck and the outer join is
inherently harder to execute. I didn't study the query closely enough
to see if it's joining to any left join right-hand-sides, or anything
else that would forbid picking a nice join order.
