It is normal that increasing default_statistic_target will increase
planning time. Increasing it to 14 seconds is undesirable, of course, but
without seeing the query it is hard to say more than that. This could be a
bug which leads to pathologically slow planning in some cases, or it could
be that your query is just a monster query that is difficult to plan.
2) Is there any way to limit querry plan creation time?

See the *_collapse_limit settings here,

And see the further sections referred to from there.
