To paraphrase a leading authority on PostgreSQL development, and with
tongue firmly in cheek, there's something to what you say, but
consider that we have pretty much unanimous agreement that 100k is too
small. I think we should try to fix the problem, not just gradually
ratchet up the value until people start complaining in the other
direction. :-)
