I did not look at the benchmarks, so here are my code comments.

- I would avoid creating a new scope for the streaming read. While it
makes the streaming code easier to interpret, it introduces a large
diff due to indentation changes.

- I suggest adding the following comment about streaming batching, as
it is used in other places:

        /*
         * It is safe to use batchmode as block_range_read_stream_cb takes no
         * locks.
         */

- For the '/* Scan all blocks except the metapage using streaming
reads */' comments, it might be helpful to clarify that the 0th page
is the metapage. Something like: '/* Scan all blocks except the
metapage (0th page) using streaming reads */'.

Other than these comments, the code looks good to me.
