Has anyone bothered to measure the overhead added by having to mask to

I haven't tested it. Agreed, it does add an AND operation to places
where t_natts is accessed.
Tom, how should this be tested? I assume some loop of the same query
over and over again.
I'd be satisfied by a demonstration of no meaningful difference in
pgbench numbers.
It's *probably* not a problem, but you never know if you don't check...
I doubt there's any measurable difference, but I can do a pgbench run to
make sure.
