can you explain what the numbers mean in the EXPLAIN ANALYZE?

It's worth reading through the docs at that reference in my previous email - it's well explained there.

As I understand it, "cost" signifies the planner's estimate of how long the query will take, in terms of disk page fetches. The "actual time" is in milliseconds.
