Right, sorry. I thought there was some strength reduction going on
there as well.
Thanks for the various explanations, they address my concerns. I see
that v2 applies over v1.
I've verified performance improvements using 8 cores with my proposed
pgbench -P benchmark, with a scale that fits in shared_buffers.
It brings it most of the way, but not quite, up to the btree performance.
I've marked this as ready for committer.
Cheers,
Jeff
