This patch went through the last tree commit fests without any noticeable activity, but cfbot says it still applies and doesn't break any tests. The patch itself is rather small, and I could reproduce ~20% of performance improvements while running the same scripts under pgbench (although not in all cases), but probably we need to find someone to take over it. Does anyone wants to do so, maybe Kyotaro?
