It's hard to believe that such a simple query could take that
long to plan. What I'm wondering is if the planner got blocked
on some other session's exclusive lock. Not a lock on
"T_WF_INSTANCE" itself, because we'd have got that lock during
parsing before the "Planning Time" measurement starts. But
there's going to be a physical access to the table's index
to determine its tree height, so an ex-lock on the index could
explain this. Or an ex-lock on catalogs, particularly pg_statistic.
What else is going on in your database when this happens?
