I have some comments with the committed patch.

In the above scenario, directly replacing the slot->tts_tuple without
freeing the exisitng
tuple will unnecessarily increase the slot context memory size, this may
lead to a problem
if the same slot is used for many tuples. Better to use ExecStoreTuple()
function to update
the slot tuple.
