Would it be possible to get a copy of your schema? (not the data of
course, but the objects definition) The idea is to restore them on my
computer, and fix the performance issue you have.

Yes, it's single threaded. There's not a lot of count(*) uses, mainly on
system catalogs. There's one on the data (which would cause you bad
issues on a 4TB database), but it's only launched if you have bad
statistics.
