What indexes are defined on this table ?
How large are they ?

Is the only only problem query, or just one example or ??
Are your issues with loading data, querying data or both ?

It shows that you only have a few filesystems in use.
It's common to have WAL and temp_tablespaces on a separate FS.
That probably wouldn't help your performance at all, but it would help to tell
what's doing I/O.  Is there anything else running on the VM besides postgres ?

You can also check:
SELECT COUNT(1), wait_event FROM pg_stat_activity GROUP BY 2 ORDER BY 1 DESC;

And the pg_buffercache extension:
SELECT COUNT(nullif(isdirty,'f')) dirty, COUNT(1) all, COALESCE(c.relname, b.relfilenode::text) FROM pg_buffercache b LEFT JOIN pg_class c ON b.relfilenode=pg_relation_filenode(c.oid) GROUP BY 3 ORDER BY 1 DESC,2 DESC LIMIT 9;

Are KSM or THP enabled on the hypervisor ?

tail /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/defrag /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
