Speed up CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY's TID sort.
Robert Haas <rhaas@postgresql.org>
Speed up CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY's TID sort. Encode TIDs as 64-bit integers to speed up comparisons. This seems to speed things up on all platforms, but is even more beneficial when 8-byte integers are passed by value. Peter Geoghegan. Design suggestions and review by Tom Lane. Review also by Simon Riggs and by me.
