Tom's lengths+cache aware: 455ms
HEAD: 440ms
This is a realistic-ish workload in my opinion and Tom's patch performs within 4% of HEAD.
Due to the overall lenghts I couldn't really test compressibility so I re-ran the test. This time I inserted an array of 2 objects in each row, as in: [obj, obj];
The objects where taken in sequence from the 10000 pool so contents match in both tests.
Test query: SELECT data #> '{0, name}', data #> '{0, email}', data #> '{1, name}', data #> '{1, email}' FROM t_json
Test storage: EXTENDED
HEAD: 17mb table + 878mb toast
HEAD size quartiles: {2015,2500,2591,2711,3483}
HEAD query runtime: 15s
Tom's: 220mb table + 580mb toast
Tom's size quartiles: {1665,1984,2061,2142.25,2384}
Tom's query runtime: 13s
This is an intriguing edge case that Tom's patch actually outperform the base implementation for 3~4kb jsons.
