Tom & Thomas:
Thank you so much, those a very useful comments.
I noticed that I didn't make my intentions very clear. My teams goal is to evaluate if there are any gains in JITing PostgreSQL itself, or at least parts of it, and not the expressions or parts of a query.
The rationale to use PostgreSQL is because DBs are long running applications and the cost of JITing can be amortized.
We have a prototype LLVM IR pass that outlines functions in a program to JIT and a ORC-based runtime to re-compile functions. Our goal is to see improvements due to target/sub-target specialization.
The reason I was looking at benchmarks is to have a workload to profile PostgreSQL and find its bottlenecks. The hot functions would then be outlined for JITing.

BTW you can also just turn it off with runtime settings, no need to rebuild.
