Well, that's darn odd. It should not be getting that so far wrong.
What's the datatype of the status column exactly (I'm guessing varchar
but maybe not)? Would you show us the pg_stats row for the status column?
It has been created as a char(1) in fact. The pg_stats row for the status
column is:
public|banners_links|status|0|5|2|{0,1}|{0.626397,0.373603}||0.560611
I'm not sure why, but I think it must have something to do
with the subquery structure of your query. Were you showing us the
whole truth about your query, or were there details you left out?
The query I gave in the opening post was just a small part, the part that I
initially identified as the 'slow path'. The last plan I gave was from the
whole query, without any details left out. I didn't gave the SQL of that
yet, so here it is:

If I change 1 of the redundant checks:
/* SUBQUERY banners_links */ (
SELECT
*
FROM
banners_links
WHERE
merchant_id = 5631
) AS banners_links
into just banner_links, PG comes up with the (large) plan I posted earlier.
