Greg,

Thanks for working through this. I see I still need to look more at
the leaky views stuff. I think that the tuplesort comparison overhead
reduction is in Peter G's hands to rebase at the moment; I will look
at that again when it reemerges. I think "avoid two snapshots per
query" is pretty much ready to go, though I'm vaguely waiting for any
further input from Dimitri. I believe I'm going to punt on FlexLocks
for now, for the reasons set out in the email I just sent on that
topic, and accordingly am marking that patch with feedback.

One more time to make sure I made my main point: thanks for working on
this. :-)
