That seems like a fairly significant regression, TBH. I don't quite
agree we can simply assume in-memory workloads don't matter, plenty of
databases have 99% cache hit ratio (particularly when considering not
just shared buffers, but also page cache).
Can you share the benchmarks, so that others can retry running them?
