+1 for reviving this patch for 9.4

Any other votes?

We've had to manually code something that runs EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * from a 
bunch of tables to warm our caches after a restart, but there's numerous flaws 
to that approach obviously.

Unfortunately, what we really need to warm isn't the PG buffers, it's the FS 
cache, which I suspect this won't help. But I still see where just pg_buffers 
would be useful for a lot of folks, so +1.
