These numbers look very good. Thanks for responding to my request.

What people have said historically at this point is "ah, but you've
just deferred the pain from clog lookups".

The best way to show this does what we hope is to run a normal-ish
OLTP access to the table that would normally thrash the clog and show
no ill effects there either. Run that immediately after the above
tests so that the cache and hint bits are both primed.
