I think that actually might be the issue. On linux a test a pg_verifybackup
was much faster than on windows (as in 10x). But if I disable openssl, it's
only 2x.
On the windows instance I *do* have openssl enabled. But I suspect something
is off and the windows buildsystem ends up with our hand-rolled implementation
on the client side, but not the server side. Which'd explain the times I'm
seeing: We have a fast CRC implementation, but the rest is pretty darn
unoptimized.
