Hmm, probably those results are swamped by I/O functions though.
I'd suggest trying something that exercises array_map(), which
it looks like means doing an array coercion. Perhaps like so:
do $$
declare a int4[];
x int;
begin a := array(select generate_series(1,1000)); for i in 1..100000 loop x := array_length(a::int8[], 1); end loop;
end$$;
Anyway, thanks for poking at it!
