I missed this whole thing, and eventually I have to circle back to it.  
I could do it this week.  Could you (or someone else familiar with the 
useful benchmarks) give me more detail on how to replicate one case 
where things should improve?  I can do that, and I have a lab full of 
hardware if it's easier to spot on one type of server. That exercise 
will probably lead to a useful opinion on the feature in its final form, 
any associated GUC, tunables, and necessary level of associated 
documentation in a day or two.

This is a pretty low bar, right?  Examples and documentation sufficient 
for just me to catch up is not asking for very much.  If it isn't 
possible to do that in a very short period of time, it would not bode 
well for broader consumption.
