For larger tuple sizes (>1000 && < 1800), the performance gain will be good.
Please refer performance results by me and Kyotaro-san in below links:

In fact, I believe for all tuples with length between 200 to 1800 bytes and changed values around 15~20%, there will be
bothperformance gain as well as WAL reduction.
The reason for keeping the logic same for smaller tuples (<=128 bytes) also same, that there is no much performance
differencebut still WAL reduction gain is visible.
