Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't include parameter evaluation
time earlier, since it's not strictly planning time. But I think it's
important to include the parameter evaluation since different set of
parameters may cause planner to create a customized plan. So it looks
like something we should include in the planning time. I have updated
the patch to do so. I have also rebased the patches on top of current
head, resolving a conflict. The new patches have slightly different
names than previous ones, since I am now using git format-patch to
create those.
