While I agree with the other comments that you should think about moving to something newer than 7.4.x, there really shouldn't be any meaningful performance difference between 7.4.13 and 7.4.16. I'm guessing some sort of pedestrian pilot error, like not using similar postgresql.conf settings or forgetting to ANALYZE the database after reloading it into the new installation. regards, tom lane
