I don't think it'd help much --- in an example like this, other tools
like vmstat would be more likely to be useful in investigating the
problem. There's also the problem that EXPLAIN ANALYZE overhead is
already too high --- another dozen gettimeofday() calls per row
processed doesn't sound appetizing.
