Right - I guess it is probably more correct to say that the
implementation used in Bizgres is specifically targeted at BI/DW
workloads rather than OLTP.
At this point we have not measured its impact on concurrency in anything
other than a handwaving manner - e.g pgbench on an older SMP system
showed what looked like about a 10% hit. However the noise level for
pgbench is typically >10% so - a better benchmark on better hardware is
needed.
