Mark, thanks for sharing these results with us. Interesting. PG is
definitely slower, but not overwhelmingly slower.

I wonder how different the result would be if you had a huge amount of
RAM and allocated PG enough buffers to keep the entire table in RAM.
That would take OS IO considerations out of the question, right? RAM
is very cheap these days.
