Hi, hackers.
For some distributions of data in tables, different loops in nested loop
joins can take different time and process different amounts of entries.
It makes average statistics returned by explain analyze not very useful
for DBA.
To fix it, here is the patch that add printing of min and max statistics
for time and rows across all loops in Nested Loop to EXPLAIN ANALYSE.
Please don't hesitate to share any thoughts on this topic!

This is great feature - sometimes it can be pretty messy current limited format

Cool.
I have added your patch to the commitfest, so it won't get lost.
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/30/2765/
I will review the code next week. Unfortunately, I cannot give any feedback about usability of this feature.
User visible change is:
- -> Nested Loop (actual rows=N loops=N)
+ -> Nested Loop (actual min_rows=0 rows=0 max_rows=0 loops=2)
Pavel, Julien, could you please say if it looks good?
