EXPLAIN only shows what the planner thinks a query will cost. For any
real testing, you need EXPLAIN ANALYZE.
Also, understand that partitioning isn't a magic bullet. It can make
some operations drastically faster, but it's not going to help every
scenario, and will actually slow some other operations down.
