If you imported from a dump, the indexes will be updated as part of the
import. However, you would probably be well served to run a ANALYZE to
update statistics information. Otherwise the query planner might come
out with sub-optimal plans...
I'm assuming that in the statement above you meant that you removed the
cluster and restored the entire cluster. If you just did the DB, it's
possible that other things might not be so well off....especially since
you don't know the root cause of the problem.
