Analyzing did not help, here is the out of EXPLAIN ANALYZE of update query
"Seq Scan on dummy (cost=0.00..56739774.24 rows=23441 width=275) (actual time=18.927..577929.014 rows=22712 loops=1)"
" SubPlan"
" -> Aggregate (cost=2420.41..2420.43 rows=1 width=19) (actual time=25.423..25.425 rows=1 loops=22712)"
" -> Seq Scan on dummy "temp" (cost=0.00..2416.01 rows=586 width=19) (actual time=0.049..17.834 rows=2414 loops=22712)"

If that doesn't help, let's see EXPLAIN ANALYZE (not just EXPLAIN)
output.
