Here's a breakdown of the postmaster file sizes and the wall-clock run
time of the long-literal test:

no options      1749912         1m58.688s
-CFe            1754315         1m49.223s
-CF             1817621         1m43.780s
-CFa            1890197         1m45.600s

(These numbers are different than yesterday's because they don't have
profiling and debugging overhead.)

Seeing this, I think -CF should be OK space and time-wise.

As I recall it, probably a third of the overall improvement came from
using -CF[a].
