From depesz? That site works differently - you enter the explain plan
into the form, it does some formatting/highlighting and you're supposed
to submit the link to that page. E.g. http://explain.depesz.com/s/JwTB
is for your query.
However it seems you've done some anonymization on the query, e.g.
replacing the table/index/function names and string literals with some
random words.
Anyway, the plan shows the estimates are reasonably accurate, but the
index scan on romeo_four consumes ~99% of the query duration. Not sure
if it can be improved, because we don't know the original query and the
anonymization made it rather annoying to deal with.

Once again, this top output is incomplete - all it lists are postgres
processes (and it's unclear what they're doing), but there are certainly
some other processes running. Moreover, those 15 processes account for
only ~25% of CPU, but there's almost 50% CPU utilized. So where's the rest?
