For larger tuple sizes (>1000 && < 1800), the performance gain will be good.
Please refer performance results by me and Kyotaro-san in below links:

In fact, I believe for all tuples with length between 200 to 1800 bytes and 
changed values around 15~20%, there will be both performance gain as well as 
WAL reduction.
The reason for keeping the logic same for smaller tuples (<=128 bytes) also 
same, that there is no much performance difference but still WAL reduction gain 
is visible.
