resending this message, as it seems to have bounced.

(below, I did fix the typo in the pseudocode loop)

To my surprise, I have later seen the opposite behaviour with the standby giving fast runs, and
the primary slow.

FWIW, I've overnight run a larget set of tests. (against same 9.0devel
instances as the ones from the earlier email).

These results are generally more balanced.

for scale in 10 100 500 1000
pgbench ... # initialise
sleep ((scale / 10) * 60)
for clients in 1 5 10 20
for port in 6565 6566 --> primaryport standbyport
for run in `seq 1 3`
pgbench ...
sleep ((scale / 10) * 60)
done
done
done
done

(so below, alternating 3 primary, followed by 3 standby runs)
