Hello Tom,

Sorry for the misleading. Could you try these two queries? I made the query 
even slower in latest version of postgres. These are information about how we 
set up evaluation environment and query result.


Thanks,

Jinho Jung


Install Multiple version of DBs in one machine
======================================
# Install 10.5
    $ wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | 
sudo apt-key add -
    $ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ 
xenial-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg_xenial.list'
    $ sudo apt update
    $ sudo apt-get install postgresql-10

# Install 9.6
    $ sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.6

# Install 9.5
    $ sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.5

# Install 9.4
    $ sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.4 postgresql-contrib-9.4 libpq-dev 
postgresql-server-dev-9.4

# check
    $ pg_lsclusters


Original regression query
==========================
explain analyze
select
  1
from
  information_schema.role_usage_grants as ref_2,
  lateral (
    select
      max((null)) over (partition by ref_3.amopfamily) as c8
    from
        pg_catalog.pg_amop as ref_3
    ) as subq_0
;

ORIGINAL querying time
on old version(9.4/9.5): 5.7ms
on latest version(10): 91.76ms



CORRELATED query to maximize error
===================================
explain analyze
select *
from information_schema.role_usage_grants f1
where grantor =
    ( select max(ref_2.grantor)
      from
       information_schema.role_usage_grants as ref_2,
       lateral (
         select
           max((null)) over (partition by ref_3.amopfamily) as c8
         from
             pg_catalog.pg_amop as ref_3
         ) as subq_0
      where ref_2.object_catalog = f1.object_catalog
    )
;


CORRELATED querying time
on old version(9.4/9.5): 0.6s
on latest version(10): 113s
188 times slower

Hm, testing this in the regression database, it seems pretty speedy
across all supported branches, and indeed slower in 9.4 than later
branches (~25 ms vs ~10 ms).

It seems likely that you're testing in a very different database,
perhaps one with many more tables ... but if you don't explain the
test scenario, we aren't going to have much luck investigating.
