I have indexes on both the key on the big table and the import_id on
the sequence table.
Forgive my quick answer, but it might be that the data you are
retrieving is scattered throughout the whole table, and the index scan
does not kick in (as it is more expensive to perform lots of random
fetches rather than a single scan).
To be able to help you though, I'd need to deeply look at the ETL
process - I am afraid you need to use a different approach, involving
either queues or partitioning.
Sorry for not being able to help you more in this case.
Cheers,
Gabriele
