(You haven't said, but I suppose that the child tables are partitioned on beacon_id and/or network_timestamp, so that knowledge of the constants these columns are being compared to is essential for doing constraint exclusion.) You could work around that by inserting constants into the query with EXECUTE, but a better answer would be to update to 9.2 or later. regards, tom lane
