Could you elaborate on that a bit as to why? Some time ago, I discovered 
that I had jobs for which attribute spooling was inadvertently not 
enabled. After enabling, I discovered that, while faster, it was not so 
drastic a difference for the affected clients. I did not pay much 
attention as to why at the time. It could be simply slow clients or it 
could be the DB is "fast enough". (Postgres on Intel DC3600 SSD)
