More great news, as always. IIRC you recently bumped the default
GEQO threshold from eleven to twelve. With your new fuzzy comparison
patch is twelve still the appropriate number? Or does the fuzzy
comparison scale all planning time down and therefore the default
threshold should remain where it is?
