When executed in psql on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (ubuntu/trusty64) the query "select bindata from rcfiledata where id = 106"
hangsfrom 6-12 seconds before completing. On OS X, it takes a few milliseconds. This happens with the package available
frompostgresql.org for 9.4 and with a compiled version of 9.4.1. 

All tests were with the server running on OS X. Ubuntu was running in vagrant/virtualbox. The attached filedata.sql
containsa dump of the table.  

The same problem happens when executed in a program using libpq.That program is included in pgtest.c. When breaking in
gdbwhile hung, the backtrace is: 

(gdb) bt
