Well, count "over 5 minutes" as "forever".

cnts is exactly 1000 rows.
alog as a whole is now 3041833 rows
"SELECT uid FROM alog WHERE pid = 3452654 AND o = 1" gives 870 rows (202
of them NULL), but if I would first try to JOIN alog to cnts, that would
be really huge, like roughly 100000 rows, so to have this work
reasonably well, it MUST first filter alog on pid and o, and then JOIN
the result to cnts, not the other way around. Trying to fist JOIN alog to
cnts, and then filter the whole thing on pid and o is excessively stupid
in this situation, isn't it?

uid is of DOMAIN uid which is defined as:
CREATE DOMAIN uid AS integer CHECK (VALUE > 0);
But I don't think its a problem. It was working perfectly for serveral
months until yesterday I decided to mess with autovacuum and manual
ANALYZE.
