Is the problem with inserting to the partitioned table or selecting from it? It sounds like inserting is the problem in which case I ask: how are you redirecting inserts to the appropriate partition? If you're using rules, then insert performance will quickly degrade with number of partitions as *every* rule needs to be evaluated for *every* row inserted to the base table. Using a trigger which you can modify according to some schedule is much faster, or better yet, use some application-level logic to insert directly to the desired partition.
