Here is the output of explain analyze SELECT *
FROM "FILE"

"Seq Scan on "FILE" (cost=0.00..1.36 rows=36 width=235)
(actual time=0.023..0.107 rows=36 loops=1)"

The
problem is the same when I access the db with jdbc, pgAdmin and even
psql

If you look at the "actual time" it's completing very quickly indeed. So
- it must be something to do with either:
1. Fetching/formatting the data
2. Transferring the data to the client.

What happens if you only select half the rows? Does the time to run the
select halve?

are you getting the data from the local box or from a remote site?
also explain analyze is showing nothing slow but you did not post the
enitre output. also, try the \timing switch in psql.
