Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I just came across this
post while doing some research and I don't see any responses.

This seems like a mighty interesting example.  I'm not sure what's
going on here, but let me guess.  I think that the WindowAgg is
forcing some operation - detoasting, maybe? - to happen under the
materialize node.  As a result, it only gets done once.  But in the
other plan, the detoast happens at the nested loop level, above the
materialize node, and therefore it happens 10x instead of 1x.
