Neverending query on 6.5.2 over Solaris 2.5.1

Hello:
	(This is a repost from a mail to -general, as nobody could 
answer me, and acording to the Mailing Lists home page, I'm sending it 
here.)
	Maybe somebody could give some clue about what is happening:

	I have 6.5.0 running over Solaris 2.5.1 SPARC. I have a 
database with 5 tables, 3 of them < 100 regs. and 2 ("usuarios" and 
"passwd") with >10000. When querying for:

SELECT u.nombre_cuenta, per.nombre, pas.clave_cifrada, 
pas.clave_plana, u.estado FROM usuarios u, perfiles per, passwd pas 
WHERE (u.perfil=per.id_perfil) and (u.id_usr=pas.id_usr) and 
(u.activa) \g 

	postmaster starts eating a lot of CPU and it doesn't finish to 
process the query in +20 minutes.

	Postmaster shows:

	Any hints?
