The command it executes is "vacuum analyze ..", so it will do analyze also
on table which means
it will collect stats corresponding to table and index. So if you do it
before creation of index pgbench might behave
different.
In specific, from function do_analyze_rel(), it will not call
compute_index_stats() if you execute the command before
Creation of index.
