Hi,
I have done a review of this patch, it applies well on current master
and compiles without problem.
make check/installcheck and world run without failure, pg_dump tests
with pgtap enabled work fine too.
I have also given a try to the bench mentioned in the previous posts and
I have the same performances gain with the -s option.
As it seems to have a consensus to apply this patch I will change the
commitfest status to ready for committers.
Regards,
