I think so too, as said, not sure if it worths.

Offhand, an example may help a little:

create table t1(id int);
explain select max(id), min(id), sum(id), count(id), avg(id) from t1;

 Modify codes to test:

Gdb and print accumulate_list_size for each iteration:

SaveBytes = Sum results of accumulate_list_size: 32(4+4+8+8), as we have 5 aggs 
in sql.

If there were N sets of that aggs (more columns as id, with above aggs ), the 
bytes will be N*SaveBytes.

Seems we don’t have so many agg functions that could share the same trans 
function, Does it worth?
