	First of all: sorry for the late reply, but with the weekend and all...

	To awnser your question... EXPLAIN shows this:
sac=> explain select c.nome from aluno a, concelho c where
sac-> a.concelho_naturalidade=c.codigo and a.numero_aluno=13792;
NOTICE:  QUERY PLAN:

Hash Join  (cost=27.44 size=164 width=18)
  ->  Seq Scan on c  (cost=13.16 size=308 width=16)
  ->  Hash  (cost=0.00 size=0 width=0)
        ->  Index Scan on a  (cost=2.05 size=2 width=2)

EXPLAIN

	Upgrading at this point might be complicated, but sooner or later i
will have to upgrade...
