Lots more could be shared, too. Cached plans, for example.

But the fact that PostgreSQL has transactional DDL complicates things like
a shared plan cache and shared PL/pgSQL execution trees. Those things are
much easier in a trivial database implementation, where an ALTER TABLE is
just trampling over a running transaction.
