I'm having trouble even seeing gains from the ERROR case and I'm considering dropping this patch due to that. I ran another scale=5 TPCH benchmark on v4 against f859c2ffa using gcc 9.3. I'm unable to see any gains with this, however, the results were pretty noisy. I only ran pgbench for 60 seconds per query. I'll likely need to run that a bit longer. I'll do that tonight. It would be good if someone else could run some tests on their own hardware to see if they can see any gains. David
