I'm not saying the change in width is your problem here, but it's odd. Compare
a pg_dump of the schema of 7.1 newsletter vs 7.4 newsletter. There are only
two possibilities:
1. PG has changed the way it reports row width (I don't remember any such
change).
2. Something *has* changed.
If it still doesn't make sense, can you post the CREATE TABLE/INDEX etc. for
the newsletter table and I'll try it here and see what figure I get.
Once we've cleared this up, we'll have a look at what your config settings are
and whether they need tuning. PS - EXPLAIN ANALYSE is better than just
EXPLAIN for seeing what happens, it actually runs the query and shows what
happened.
