In the plan below, we can see that the optimizer is sorting an already
sorted result. It seems to forget the sort order across the UNIQUE node. My
question is, do we make any attempts in the optimizer to remember the sort
order of a result, to avoid any further sorting on same sort-key? If not,
can we do something about it?
postgres=# explain select * from del where ctid in ( select ('''(' || i ||
',' || j || ')''')::tid from generate_series( 0, 1) s1(i), generate_series(
1, 1 ) s2(j) );
