This isn't particularly surprising in itself.  When we know that the
session user is a superuser, SET ROLE just succeeds immediately.
Otherwise we have to determine whether the SET is allowed, ie, is
the session user a member of the specified role.

It looks like the first time such a question is asked within a session,
we build and cache a list of all the roles the session user is a member
of (directly or indirectly).  That's what's taking the time here ---
apparently in your test case, the "admin" role is a member of a whole lot
of roles?
