Yeah, there are a few number of small changes in plans and costs
estimated. I've a large list of queries executed against both databases,
and I haven't seen any differences in row-estimates, so the analyze's
have yielded similar enough results.

I'm not sure whether some of the changes are for better or worse, you
can probably spot that a bit faster than I can. I saw a few index scans
replaced by seq scans (on small tables), all index scans seem to have
doubled in cost? And I saw a few bitmap scans in stead of normal index
scans and more such small changes. But not so small if you execute a
hundreds of thousands of those queries.

Since I'd rather not send the entire list of queries to the entire
world, is it OK to send both explain analyze-files to you off list?
