Well, if the penalty is order of 20% (as opposed to integer multiples) I think the discussion is over.

The recent COPY FROM speedup patch would have affected this test.) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
