It's my theory as well - you know, this could be solved by JITting
complex expressions.

Bad cache behavior in application often comes as a side-effect of
interpreted execution (in this case, of expressions, conditions,
functions). A JIT usually solves this cache inefficiency.

I know, adding any kind of JIT to pg could be a major task.
