Hm. If you're going to do queries that involve update/delete across large
inheritance trees, that bug fix is unavoidably going to cost you some
cycles. Having said that, though, the append_rel_list data structures
aren't especially large or complex, so it's a mite astonishing that you
could notice this extra copying cost in the context of everything else
that happens in a large inherited UPDATE. I am wondering if you've
misidentified the commit that made the difference --- especially since you
claim there's a penalty for "all" queries, which there manifestly couldn't
be with this particular patch. If not, there must be something rather
unusual about your queries or schema. Care to provide a self-contained
test case?
