That seems quite peculiar; AFAICS the pgstat code shouldn't be any
slower than before. At first I thought it might be because we'd
increased PGSTAT_ACTIVITY_SIZE, but actually that happened before
8.0 release, so it shouldn't be a factor in this comparison.
Can anyone else confirm a larger penalty for stats_command_string in
HEAD than in 8.0? A self-contained test case would be nice too.
