I think it was replied that will be heavily. If we realize histogram in pg_stat_statements, we have to implement dobuble precision arrays for storing histogram data. And when we update histogram data in each statements, we must update arrays with searching what response time is the smallest or biggest? It is very big cost, assuming large memory, and too hevily when updating than we get benefit from it. So I just add stddev for as fast as latest pg_stat_statements. I got some agreed from some people, as you say.

I could live with stddev. But we really ought to be investing in
making pg_stat_statements work well with third-party tools. I am very
wary of enlarging the counters structure, because it is protected by a
spinlock. There has been no attempt to quantify that cost, nor has
anyone even theorized that it is not likely to be appreciable.

OK, Kondo, please demonstrate benchmarks that show we have <1% impact
from this change. Otherwise we may need a config parameter to allow
the calculation.
OK, testing DBT-2 now. However, error range of benchmark might be 1% higher. So I show you detail HTML results.
