I thought the proposal was to add it to (1) pg_stat_statement and (2)
EXPLAIN, both of which are not in the normal code execution path.
pg_stat_statement is already a drag on a machine with slow gettimeofday,
but it's not clear why users of it would think that two gettimeofday's
per query are acceptable and four are not.
