I don't think you need to --- the "read-only transaction" case built
into pgbench is probably an equivalent test. What it looks like to
me is that the EquivalenceClass mechanism has added a little bit of
overhead, which isn't actually buying much of anything in these
trivial cases. I'll look at whether it can be short-circuited.
