Ok, long running transactions will do the trick. I quicky checked and
doing an index lookup for min/max histogram lookups was added *after*
8.4 which would explain why you're not seing the issue there
(c.f. 40608e7f949fb7e4025c0ddd5be01939adc79eec).
It getting slower and slower during a testrun would be explained by the
additional tuple versions amassing which cannot be marked dead because
of older transactions around. I guess those are also part of the test?
If I interpret things correctly you're using serializable? I guess there
is no chance to use repeatable read instead?
