Actually these servers will be upgraded to 8.1.4 in couple of months.

Here you go with explain analyze.

# explain analyze SELECT *
FROM EVENTLOG 
WHERE EVENTTIME>'07/23/06 16:00:00' AND  EVENTTIME<'08/22/06 16:00:00' 
AND  (OBJDOMAINID='tzRh39d0d91luNGT1weIUjLvFIcA' 
        OR OBJID='tzRh39d0d91luNGT1weIUjLvFIcA' 
        OR USERDOMAINID='tzRh39d0d91luNGT1weIUjLvFIcA') 
ORDER BY EVENTTIME DESC, SEQUENCENUM DESC LIMIT 500 OFFSET 500;

Firstly you should update to 8.0.8 - because it's in the same stream you
won't need to do a dump/initdb/reload like a major version change, it
should be a simple upgrade.

Can you send explain analyze instead of just explain?

It sounds like you're not analyz'ing enough - if you're doing lots of
updates/deletes/inserts then the statistics postgresql uses to choose
whether to do an index scan or something else will quickly be outdated
and so it'll have to go back to a full table scan every time..

Can you set up autovacuum to handle that for you more regularly?
