For difficult problems, there is nothing like a self-contained test
case, that someone else can run to see the issue. Here's a starting
point:

create extension if not exists hstore;
create schema cars;
drop table if exists cars.imports;
CREATE TABLE cars.imports
(
id serial NOT NULL,
target_id integer,
batch_id integer,
make_id integer,
model_id integer,
date timestamp without time zone,
division_id integer,
dealer_id integer,
data hstore,
created_at timestamp without time zone NOT NULL,
updated_at timestamp without time zone NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT imports_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
CREATE INDEX index_imports_on_data ON cars.imports USING gin (data);
CREATE INDEX index_imports_on_dealer_id ON cars.imports USING btree (dealer_id);
CREATE INDEX index_imports_on_division_id ON cars.imports USING btree (division_id);
CREATE INDEX index_imports_on_make_id ON cars.imports USING btree (make_id);
CREATE INDEX index_imports_on_model_id ON cars.imports USING btree (model_id);
insert into cars.imports (created_at, updated_at) select now(), now() from (select generate_series(1, 100000)) x;
vacuum freeze analyze;
\timing on
update cars.imports set make_id = 0;
vacuum analyze;
update cars.imports set make_id = 0;

... and here's what I get when I run it on my desktop computer with
ordinary disk drives and a completely default configuration:

test=# create extension if not exists hstore;
CREATE EXTENSION

 shared_buffers             | 32MB               | configuration file
 TimeZone                   | US/Central         | configuration file
(13 rows)

I did absolutely no tuning from the default configuration.

So, what timings do you get if you run the identical script? Is
there something you can do to the above script (maybe in terms of
populating data) which will cause the performance you see?
