When you run the performance tests, you can try to capture and publish
relation size & the number of pages that are getting created for base
table and the CTAS table, you can use something like SELECT relpages
FROM pg_class WHERE relname = 'tablename & SELECT
pg_total_relation_size('tablename'). Just to make sure that there is
no significant difference between the base table and CTAS table.
