Pgbench is a famous tool to measure postgres performance, but nowadays
it does not work well because it cannot use multiple CPUs. On the other
hand, postgres server can use CPUs very well, so the bottle-neck of

Hello.
Here's a patch(WIP) that implements INSERT .. RETURNING inside a CTE.
Should apply cleanly against CVS head.
The INSERT query isn't rewritten so rules and default values don't work.
Recursive CTEs don't work either.
