I thought dev-list would be appropriate place to send a patch, haven't found clear guidelines, sorry. Submitting a ticket now.No apology needed. I think you perfectly discussed things and this is worthy of a bug.
Just for reference, "12% slower" in benchmark I performed is a 26 seconds vs 29 seconds case and yet it saves 1G of RAM. Two-three times larger database and sa-awl process won't even fit in a 32-bit virtualaddress space.
A good reason why we need to make this an option.
