Quite aside from this qsort-thing, it would be nice to have versions of
all simple functions that could be called without the FunctionCall
overhead. So instead of:
FunctionCall2(&flinfo_for_int4pl, 1, 2)
you could do simply
int4pl_fastpath(1,2)
I'm not sure how big an effect this would have, but it seems like it
could shave some cycles across the system.
We could have an extended version of the PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro that
would let you register the fastpath function:
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(int4pl, int4pl_fastpath);
