I've tested the patch set, seems like the last patch caused big
regression on pgbench:

                        base    patch 1~6       patch 1~7
| db_size | clients |  tps  |   |  tps  |       |  tps  |
+---------+---------+-------+   +-------+       +-------+
| 22 MB   |      32 | 43420 |   | 53387 |       | 41625 |

I guess some magic thing happened in effective_load() while calculating
group decay combined with load decay, what's your opinion?
