This is another solution for the same purpose. We can avoid to call
PageIndexMultiDelete() to remove only one tuple. _bt_split() becomes
to ignore tuples with LP_DELETE because such tuples are passed now.
The cleaner threshold (currently 2) might have to be more tweaked.
Can this change resolve your performance problem?
