"significant" is a relative term. 1% can be significant under the proper

The information isn't specific to Postgres, and the results aren't really
conclusive, but hopefully it helps.
I really think that if someone would actually test this with Postgres and
post the results, it would be very beneficial to the community. I have
it on my list of things to do, but it's unlikely to get done in the first
