The changes will only affect the backend.
Sorry, I by "both paths" I meant make the frontend and backend the same, because it's good for testing. In the "small table" patch, libpq etc increase by about 1%, which is negligible. unicode_norm.o is only bigger by 7kB -- That seems okay to me, especially considering unicode_norm_srv.o is smaller by 27kB. > From these tests, we see 2x in some tests.
