I am using postgres 9.4, the default install with "brew install postgres, no tuning at all. BTW if I use postgres.app application the benchmarks run twice as slow!
Why do you think there is such dramatic difference between EXECUTE 'INSERT INTO ' || quote_ident(partition_name) || ' SELECT ($1).*' USING NEW ;
and
EXECUTE 'INSERT INTO ' || quote_ident(partition_name) || ' VALUES( ($1).*)' USING NEW ;

I think to actually give you a meaningful response, we really need more
details about your configuration - what PostgreSQL version are you
using, what configuration have you changed from the defaults and such.
Anyway, you're right that triggers are not cheap. The numbers I get on
the development version with a bit of tuning look like this:
INSERT (direct) 1.5 sec
INSERT 4.0 sec
INSERT (EXECUTE) 11.5 sec
So it's ~ what you've measured. Rules have the lowest overhead, but also
there's a lot of tricky places.
There's not much you can do, except for inserting the data directly into
the right partition (without any triggers).
