What I had in mind was something much less formal, like a self-
contained repro case of a performance problem.
... simple schema
... data load
... maybe build some indexes
... maybe set hints
VACUUM ANALYZE;
CHECKPOINT;
I'm not saying it's a very strong use case, but at least for me, it's
kind of a habit to throw in a CHECKPOINT after a quick data load for a
test, even if it might not matter for whatever I'm testing.
I guess I can change my habit to use a function instead, but then
what's the point of the syntax?
Should we just add a builtin function pg_checkpoint(), and deprecate
the syntax?
