change to
"Heap-Only Tuples (HOT) improve performance of frequent UPDATEs"
I used the original text because it tries to explain _how_ HOT improves
performance. The item that has the descriptive text explains how the
space reuse works. A generic "improve performance" doesn't seem like an
improvement.
I still think this needs to be qualified either way. As it stands it's
quite misleading. Many update scenarios will not benefit one whit from
HOT updates.
