Then your experience has been exactly the opposite of mine.

So, what's the other explanation, all queries in 8.3 are slower, and
everyone who says it's faster is just lieing?

Please stop the histrionics.  If your new query is slower, post the
information here to help the hackers figure out why its slower and
help you fix it.  There's no grand conspiracy to hide you poorly
performing query.  There may be a negative reaction to your behaviour
that's hampering it getting any priority to get fixed, but I can't say
I'd blame the hackers on that one.
