Thanks for showing your interest towards this patch. I would like to
inform that this patch has got dependency on patch for 'Write Ahead
Logging in hash index - [1]' and 'Microvacuum support in hash index
[1]'. Hence, until above two patches becomes stable I may have to keep
on rebasing this patch. However, I will try to share you the updated
patch asap.

Sure, I will try to avoid the code duplication as much as possible.

There is no reason for having so many INSERT statements in test.sql
file. I think it would be better to replace it with single SQL
statement. Thanks.
