Look in pg_type ... but they mostly default to "extended".

A pushed-out-of-line value is replaced by a 20-byte pointer structure.
There's no such thing as partially out-of-line. See

I'd actually suppose it's the smaller values (up to a few hundred bytes)
that impact this the most. Really wide fields would be

More bytes to scan over? Have you checked the physical table sizes?
