Thanks for compiling the benchmark data above.
The main benefit of this patch will be to give the user
a toggle if they are observing high spinlock contention
due to pg_stat_statements which will likely occur
on larger machines.
I also did not see this thread [1] mentioned in the thread above,
but one of the reasons pg_stat_statements.track_planning
was turned off by default was due to the additional spinlock
acquire to track the planning stats. Bringing this up as sample_rate
might also be beneficial as well if a user decides to track planning.

Sami
