Ops, I forgot to answer question "why in single-user env 7.1 is
slower than 7.0.3?". I assumed that 7.1 was compared with 7.0.3
*with -F*, which probably is not correct, I don't know.
Well, the next test shows that 7.1 is faster in single-user env
than 7.0.3 *without -F*:
table (i int, t text); 1000 INSERTs (in separate transactions),
sizeof(t) 1 .. 256:
7.0.3: 42 sec -> 24 tps
7.1 : 24 sec -> 42 tps
