We cannot shrink the table if one tuple remains at the end of table
and the tuple is always HOT-updated, because we put a new tuple into
the same page where the old tuple is placed if possible.
In addition to your intelligent FSM search modes,
do we need another algorithm to make the compaction to work better?
