How about one of:

1) on disk page level compression (maybe with LZF or snappy) (maybe not page level, any level really)

I know toast compresses, but I believe its only one row.  page level would compress better because there is more data,
andit would also decrease the amount of IO, so it might speed up disk access. 

2) better partitioning support.  Something much more automatic.

3) take a nice big table, have it inserted/updated a few times a second.  Then make "select * from bigtable where
indexed_field= 'somevalue'; work 10 times faster than it does today. 


I think there is also a wish list on the wiki somewhere.
