Thanks for sharing your numbers! It will help us to
determine whether these changes improve performance or not.

Hmm, I used 9bc1eee988c31e66a27e007d41020664df490214 as the
base version. But both patches based on the same
revision. So we may not be able to apply both patches at
once cleanly.

I think that we don't need to use palloc0() here because the
following InitFunctionCallInfoData() call initializes all
members explicitly.
