Well, you haven't shown us either the query or the table definitions,
so we're just guessing in the dark.  However, the occurrences of
"::numeric" in the query plan make me wonder whether all of your join
keys are numeric type.  If so, the reason 8.2 didn't use any hash joins
is that it couldn't --- it didn't have a hash method for numerics.  8.3
does and therefore has more flexibility of plan choice.  Comparisons on
numerics aren't terribly fast though (in either release).  I wonder
whether you could change the key columns to int or bigint.

I also find it a tad fishy that both releases are choosing *exactly* the
same join order when there is hardly anything else that is identical
about the plans --- given the cross-release variance in rowcount
estimates etc I'd have expected at least one difference.  Are you doing
something to force the join order, like running with a small
join_collapse_limit setting?  If so maybe you shouldn't.

            regards, tom lane
