That seems rather unlikely to me. Unless you've *really* complex queries
and some unusual settings, you can't swamp the CPU through query planning.

On the other hand, your mention of REINDEX indicates that the table is being
updated very frequently. If that's the case, then the solution is probably
for you to cut back on the number of indexes.
