That's definitely *NOT* almost without overhead. This adds additional instructions to one postgres' hottest set of codepaths. I think you're not working incrementally enough here. I strongly suggest solving the negative cache entry problem, and then incrementally go from there after that's committed. The likelihood of this patch ever getting merged otherwise seems extremely small. Greetings, Andres Freund
