My plan is to commit the entire patch series (with a modified second
patch that includes the ignore_killed_tuples change) in the next
couple of days.

As far as I can determine through performance validation that tested a
variety of different scan types (simple point lookups, range scans,
and a variety of different SAOP scan patterns), the patch series is an
unambiguous win. It appears to be slightly faster even in
unsympathetic cases, such as standard pgbench SELECT.
