I agree with these conclusions. I had a chance to talk with Andres
this morning at Postgres Vision and based on that conversation I'd
like to suggest a couple of additional tests:
1. Repeat this test on x86. In particular, I think you should test on
the EnterpriseDB server cthulhu, which is an 8-socket x86 server.
2. Repeat this test with a mixed read-write workload, like -b
tpcb-like@1 -b select-only@9
