For anyone reading non-HTML email, the last line shows the averages of the
previous 10 lines.

You checked LIST but not HASH (patches 3-4) or RANGE (patch 4-5), right?

Another test is to show the time/memory used by SELECT. That's far more
important than DDL, but I think the same results would apply here, so I think
it's not needed to test each of LIST/RANGE/HASH, nor to test every combination
of patches. Mostly it's nice to see if the memory use is more visibly
different, or if there's an impressive improvement for this case.

Note that for the MAXRSS test, you must a different postgres backend process
for each of the tests (or else each test would never show a lower number than
the previous test).
