Yes, that's what Postgres is doing.  DBI-link is currently incapable
of pushing down the predicate to the remote system because Postgres
can't give it access to the predicate.

If I have to push the predicate down, I'll generally write a
set-returning function which takes some of the predicate, limit, and
offset info to build a dynamic sql query against the remote database
using dblink.
