There was a mistake in my query, so the macOS speedup column was wrong
(was accidentally comparing Linux number with macOS master, sorry for
the noise). I also forgot to mention that you don't actually get the
speedup on PostgreSQL 17 on a Mac, because Peter only recently
implemented the needed read-ahead support for macOS in master/18, but
it doesn't get slower. Here's the corrected table:
| linux (xfs) | macos (apfs)
branch | eic | avg | speedup | stdev | avg | speedup | stdev
--------+-----+--------+---------+--------+--------+---------+--------
master | | 73.959 | 1.0 | 24.168 | 72.290 | 1.0 | 11.851
