Thank you for attention.
I would be indebted to all reviewers, who can just try this patch on
real data and workload (except WAL for now).
B-tree needs very much testing.

I described in README all the points Peter asked.
But I see that it'd be better to answer directly.
Thanks for reminding, I'll do it tomorrow.

Yes, you're right.
Frankly speaking, I supposed that someone will help me with that stuff,
but now I almost completed it. I'll send updated patch in the next letter.
I'm still doubtful about some patch details. I mentioned them in readme
(bold type).
But they are mostly about future improvements.
