This:

regression=# alter table person add column address varchar(64) not null default 
'';
ERROR:  Adding columns with defaults is not implemented.
        Add the column, then use ALTER TABLE SET DEFAULT.
regression=# \q

This is just one of many many things that could be improved by getting
off of 7.3.  In general, complaining about performance (or features)
of a seven-year-old, long since EOL'd release is not a productive use of
anybody's time.
