You'll obviously need to run it with the patch applied. I'd suggest
to enable stats_block_level to see the effect on buffer cache

groupeditems-42-pghead.patch.gz is enough, or it needs
maintain_cluster_order_v5.patch ??
No, it won't make a difference unless you're inserting to the table,
and the inserts are not in cluster order.
well, that's okay than. I see really good improvement in terms of speed
and db size (which reflects obviously in i/o performance).
Let me know if further testing can be done. I would happily see it in
mainline.
If you have a real-world database you could try it with, that would be
nice. The test I sent you is pretty much a best-case scenario, it'd be
interesting to get anecdotal evidence of improvements in real applications.
