I'm not terribly happy with the entire proposal.
(1) I know it was asserted upthread that there was no performance
impact, but I find that hard to believe.
(2) This patch inserts catalog lookups into query ID computation,
which AFAIK there never were before. This means you can't compute a
query ID outside a transaction or in an already-failed transaction.
Surely that's going to bite us eventually.
(3) I think having query jumbling work differently for temp tables
than other tables is a fundamentally bad idea.
So my feeling is: if we think this is the behavior we want, let's do
it across the board. I suggest that we simply drop the relid from the
jumble and use the table alias (that is, eref->aliasname) instead.
ISTM this fits well with the general trend in pg_stat_statements
to merge statements together more aggressively than the original
concept envisioned.
