I also posted about the performance increase of 7.4, but I think that
much of the difference you're seeing (because it's such a large
difference) is probably due to the cleanliness of a newly restored
database from backup.

I agree that this seems likely, except that the 7.3.4 database is vacuumed nightly, and analyzed periodically. And about a week ago I reclustered on the index intended to most facilitate this select. Furthermore, merely hardcoding the subselect result achieves a tremendous improvement (which was the workaround I used). So, I'm pretty sure that it's not a vacuum, index use, or cleanliness issue.

I also meant to add in my original post that the system is a dual 2.4G xeon with 4GB of RAM.
