You probably need to adjust your cost factors to more accurately
reflect the actual costs of various activities on your system. What
is probably happening is that there are two plans which are very
close together in estimated costs using the current values, while
the actual costs are very different.  The particular random sample
chosen can push the balance one way or the other.

Please show the results from running the query on this page:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Server_Configuration

Also, a description of the run environment would help.

Other information listed on this page would help, although cores,
RAM, and storage system information would probably be most
important.
