Buildfarm members ayu and tern have sometimes shown a different
plan than expected for this query. I'd been unable to reproduce
that before today, but I finally realized what is happening.
If there is a concurrent open transaction (probably an autovacuum
run in the buildfarm, but this can also be arranged manually),
then the index entries for the rows removed by the DELETE a few
lines up are not killed promptly, causing a change in the planner's
estimate of the extremal value of ft2.c1, which moves the rowcount
estimate for "c1 > 1100" by enough to change the join plan from
nestloop to hash.
To fix, change the query condition to "c1 > 1000", causing the
hash plan to be preferred whether or not a concurrent open
transaction exists. Since this UPDATE is tailored to be a no-op,
nothing else changes.
