I thought toast only handled having individual large columns. So if I have a
2kb text column it'll pull that out of the table for me. But if I have 20
columns each of which have 100 bytes will it still help me? Will it kick in if
I define a single column which stores a record type with 20 columns each of
which have a 100 byte string?
