It's not really related to lossy pages, it's just that due to deletions
/ insertions a lot more "shapes" of the hashtable are hit.
I suspect that this is with parallelism disabled? Without that the query
ends up using a parallel sequential scan for me.
I've a working fix for this, and for a similar issue Robert found. I'm
still playing around with it, but basically the fix is to make the
growth policy a bit more adaptive.
