Nor would I expect anything else, on this test.
The pgbench database has 4 tables, of which 3 have one index and 1 has
no indexes at all.
A table without indexes is uncommon and most major entities such as
accounts have 2-3 indexes if not more. So I would be inclined to add a
PK to HISTORY and add two additional indexes to ACCOUNTS and then repeat
the test to see what difference it makes.
