Thread: pgsql: Perform one only projection to compute agg arguments.
Perform one only projection to compute agg arguments. Previously we did a ExecProject() for each individual aggregate argument. That turned out to be a performance bottleneck in queries with multiple aggregates. Doing all the argument computations in one ExecProject() is quite a bit cheaper because ExecProject's fastpath can do the work at once in a relatively tight loop, and because it can get all the required columns with a single slot_getsomeattr and save some other redundant setup costs.
