this looks like maintenance nightmare going forward, but i could be wrong. If you are stuck on specific pg version for a while, maybe it's worth it.

true, i saw a thread recently on reddit where guy hand-tuned compilation flags and did pgo profiling for a video encoder app that he uses on video encode farm. In his case, even a gain of ~20% was significant. It calculated into extra bandw
