Re: pgbench - extend initialization phase control

I think yes, especially with the other patch which adds timing measures to 
the initialization phases. It really depends what you want to test.

With client-side generation you test the libpq COPY interface and network 
protocol for bulk loading.

With server-side generation you are get the final result faster when 
network bandwidth is low, and somehow you are testing a different kind of 
small query which generates a lot of data.
