You did ANALYZE too, right?
The bulk of the time is evidently going into the seqscan on users in
each case:

> Filter: (get_pwd(username, '127.0.0.1'::character varying, '101'::character varying,
'MD5'::charactervarying) IS NOT NULL)
I have to suspect that the inefficiency is inside this get_pwd()
function, but you didn't tell us anything about that...
